(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of lechthin formed from two molecules of oleic acid needs to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Phospholipid is type of lipid that contains a phosphorus atom. They are mainly found in cell membrane of plants and animals. They are also called as phosphoacylglycerol as two fatty acids with phosphate group and alcoholic group are bonded to the glycerol molecule through ester linkage.
The phospholipid molecule has two ends; polar end and non-polar end. Two long hydrocarbon chains of fatty acids form the non-polar end of the molecule and hydrophobic in nature whereas the phosphate group is polar end and hydrophilic in nature. Due to this dual nature of phospholipid molecules, they form a lipid bilayer that can be effectively involved in transfer of different hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules across the cell membrane.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of phospholipid; Phosphatidylethanolamine formed from two molecules of myristic acid needs to be drawn.

Below is just the information I used to get the graphs obtain the graph please help. Prepare two graphs, the first with the percent transmission on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis and the second with absorption on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis. Solution # Unknown Concentration (mol/L) Transmittance Absorption 9.88x101 635 0.17 1.98x101 47% 0.33 2.95x101 31% 0.51 3.95x10 21% 0.68 4.94x10 14% 24% 0.85 0.62 A.) Give an equation that relates either the % transmission or the absorption to the concentration. Explain how you arrived at your equation. B.) What is the relationship between the percent transmission and the absorption? C.)
