Explanation / Answer

Ans 5) Lets start with the defination: We know Pl value is the pH where the amino acid molecule contains net neutral charge and there exists the zwitterions(both positive and negative charge with net 0 charge)
This means moving away from pl point is moving from positive to ngative charged form of amino acid molecule.
At low pH Amino acid molecule will be Positively charged(keeping aside the 'R' functional group)
At High pH Amino acid molecule will be Negatively charged(keeping aside the 'R' functional group)

Thus the pH higher than the Pl value means the solution will be Basic and the amine will exists as NH2 and carboxylic acid will exists as COO-

Ans 6)
Active Transport uses energy to move solutes against their gradients and requires ATP as energy.
Transport Proteins speed the passive movement of molecules across the plasma membrane and hence not entitled for energy input.
Diffusion occurs due to concentration gradient.
Dialysis is separation of suspended colloidal particles from dissolved ions/molecules through the pores of semipermeable membranes.

Ans 7) A triglyceride/ triacylglycerol is itself an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids(are usually different).
Those containing the same kind of fatty acid in all three positions are called simple triacylglycerols. They do not contain amide bonds.
