Fat molecules.

Water molecule is polar, and therefore water is a good solvent for other polar molecules, dissolving them when they come in contact with one another. Water is not a good solvent for nonpolar molecules, such as fats. A fat has no polar grups to interact with water molecules. An emulsifier, however, can cause a fat to disperse in water. An emulsifier contains molecules with both polar and nonpolar ends. When the nonpolar ends interact with the fat and the polar ends interact with the water molecule, the fat disperses in water, and an emulsion results.

The bonding of two amino acids to form a larger molecule requires?

The bonding of two amino acids to form a larger molecule requires the removal of a water molecule in a condensation reaction, forming a peptide bond between the amino acids. This process is catalyzed by an enzyme called a ribosome.


Why can heat not travel by conduction through a vacuum when there is no particles?

Conduction requires the presence of matter. The way conduction works is that one molecule bumps into another molecule, transferring energy. This mechanism, obviously, requires the presence of molecules.

The complete breakdown of a glucose molecule during oxidative respiration requires six oxygen molecules is that true or false?

False. The complete breakdown of a glucose molecule during oxidative respiration actually requires six molecules of oxygen.


Is diffusive equilibrium possible for the molecule that is impermeable?

No, diffusive equilibrium requires a concentration gradient and the ability of the molecule to pass through a membrane. If a molecule is impermeable, it cannot move freely across the membrane, so diffusive equilibrium is not possible for that molecule.


What is A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule referring to?

A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion because it is too big to pass through the cell membrane without assistance from transport proteins. In contrast, an oxygen molecule is small enough to diffuse freely across the cell membrane through simple diffusion due to its size and hydrophobic nature.
