Membrane lipids have fatty acid tails and, like triacylglycerols, their properties are governed by the properties of these tails. Based on what we saw with dietary lipids, which membrane would have more fluid characteristics – the one with more saturated fatty acids or the one with more unsaturated fatty acids? Explain your reasoning. Look at the structure of cholesterol. Cholesterol is a necessary component of biological membranes. What do you think cholesterol would do to the structure of a membrane...
