Identify the type of organic molecule that is hydrophobic. A. protein B. lipid C. nucleic acid D. carbohydrate Which of the following is/are major nitrogenous wastes of the human body? a. Uric acid b. Urea c. Creatine phosphate d. C...
Phospholipids as a Key Example of a Lipid Polymer Of all the lipid polymers, the most commonly known is phospholipids, which are the basic building blocks of cell membranes. These polymers have a hydrophilic and hydrophobic component; the hydrophilic head and the hydrophobic tail that allow the ...
Organic compounds that are of neutral nature tend to have hydrophobic characteristics. This means that they are less soluble in water than in organic solvents. This is with the exception of organic compounds that have ionizable groups as well as those with low molecular weight alcohols, amines an...
What molecules make plasma cell membranes hydrophilic on the outside and hydrophobic on the inside? Where do particles travel through the membrane? What structures do they pass through? The plasma membrane acts as a barrier in cells of all types to control the movement of ...
as water-soluble monomer and an acrylate or an alkyl methacrylate as a monomer which is insoluble, with a hydrophobic polysiloxane macromer of polyolefin, in particular formed from a polysiloxane polyol or dithiol by reaction with a diisocyanate and then with a compound hydroxy such as the 2 -...
Fig. 1. The German HBM system and its embedding in the process from identification of substances of concern to policy advice and action. This review aims at presenting the progress and achievements of the German HBM system, using the monitoring of exposure to phthalates and alternative plasticizers...
Different mechanisms for amyloidogenesis have been proposed, where initially well-folded proteins would undergo structural fluctuations and partial unfolding, leading to the exposure of hydrophobic residues, while formation of helical elements in intrinsically disordered proteins would serve as starting point...

Due to which of the following properties of steroids are they included in lipids? A. cholesterol is a steroid B. some of the hormones are made of steroids C. steroids are part of cell membranes D. steroids are hydrophobicWhich of the following is not...
Are carbohydrates hydrophobic or hydrophilic? Explain. Oxidation of which type of biomolecule provides the greatest energy per gram? a. lipid b. protein c. nucleic acid d. carbohydrate Which of the following substances will produce both glucose and fructose upon hydrolysis? a. lactose b. maltose ...
