The plasma membrane is a network of protein, carbohydrates, and lipids that protect the cell from the surrounding environment. The phospholipid bilayer regulates the transport of molecules into and out of the cell. Which characteristics of phospholipids' orientation facilitate their function in the cell? Select all that apply.
A
The inward-facing orientation of non-polar tails allows the bilayer to act as a barrier for charged and polar molecules entering and exiting the cell.

B
The inward-facing orientation of polar tails allows the bilayer to act as a barrier for charged and non-polar molecules entering and exiting the cell.

C
The outward-facing orientation of hydrophobic heads allows interactions between the cell and the aqueous environment.

D
The outward-facing orientation of hydrophilic heads allows interactions between the cell and the aqueous environment.

E
The outward-facing orientation of polar heads allows polar molecules to easily enter and exit the cell.

On a recent expedition to a remote region of northern canada, scientists uncovered skeletal remains from about 100,000 years ago. surprisingly, all the skeletal remains, which included many species from differing biological families and spanned about two thousand years, showed evidence of experiencing temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees fahrenheit (or 538 degrees celsius). which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent paradox between the cold environment and the evidence of the bones experiencing hot temperatures? (a) chemical changes that naturally occur during the process of decay in only one north canadian species produce the same evidence of the species' skeletons being exposed to hot temperatures as the expedition scientists found. (b) a little over 103,000 years ago, a large fire is known to have occurred in northern canada. (c) strong evidence exists that as early as 70,000 years ago, homo sapiens around the world relied heavily on fire to cook animals. (d) in the same expedition and in roughly the same layer of excavation, scientists found rudimentary wood cutting and hunting tools used by early humans.
