- Question
Lipids are insoluble in water because lipids are
Options- A. Hydrophobic
- B. Zwitter ions
- C. Hydrophylic
- D. Neutral
- Correct Answer
- Hydrophobic
ExplanationLipids are soluble in solvents of low polarity, which simply means that lipids are soluble in nonpolar solvents. This solubility property is a result of the large nonpolar regions that are indicative of the lipid molecule.

Correct Answer: Helioseismology
Explanation:
Helioseismology is the study of the solar interior using observations of waves on the Sun's surface. It has done much to improve our understanding of the interior of the Sun, testing the physical inputs used to model stellar interiors and providing a detailed map of the Sun's structure and internal rotation.
Correct Answer: Gnetum
Explanation:
Oil from Gnetum spp a gymnosperm belonging to the family Gnetaceae is used to relieve the effects of rheumatism
The lianas and shrubs of Gnetum are found in the rain forests of the western ghats.
Correct Answer: Koch
Correct Answer: Proteins
Explanation:
A pulse is an edible seed that grows in a pod. Pulses include all beans, peas, and lentils.
Pulses are a great source of protein.
This means they can be particularly important for people who do not get protein by eating meat, fish or dairy products.
However, pulses can also be a healthy choice for meat-eaters. You can add pulses to soups, casseroles and meat sauces to add extra texture and flavor. This means you can use less meat, which makes the dish lower in fat and cheaper.
Correct Answer: Uranium
Explanation:
Uranium is not a fossil fuel whereas coal, petroleum and natural gas are all natural resources.
Fossil fuels are hydrocarbons, primarily coal, fuel oil or natural gas, formed from the remains of dead plants and animals. In common dialogue, the term fossil fuel also includes hydrocarbon-containing natural resources that are not derived from animal or plant sources
Correct Answer: Glucose
Explanation:
Since A polymer is a large molecule, or macromolecule, composed of many repeated subunits. Glucose is not a polymer.
Correct Answer: Near distance
Explanation:
Stars twinkle because they?re so far away from Earth that when light from the stars passes through the atmosphere, it is bent countless times due to refraction, making it look like as if they were blinking. The sun and other planets doesn?t twinkle because it?s too close to Earth compared to other stars.
Correct Answer: a power structure in which each member knows his or her own place
Explanation:
Hierarchy is a system of ranking in which members of a particular society are ranked in an ascending order depending on various factors.
Hence, the term hierarchy refers to a power structure in which each member knows his or her own place.
Correct Answer: Aortic valve
Explanation:
The Aortic valve - located between the left ventricle and the aorta
The Mitral valve - located between the left atrium and left ventricle
The Tricuspid valve - located between the right atrium and the right ventricle (and)
The Pulmonary (pulmonic) valve - located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery.
Correct Answer: a surface exposed by a retreating glacier
