Which of the following statements are true?
a. All membrane proteins are bound to the interior of the membrane.
b. Both proteins and lipids undergo transverse diffusion from the inner to outer leaflets.
c. Some proteins and lipids undergo lateral diffusion along the surface of the membrane.
d. Carbohydrates are found covalently attached to molecules on the outside of the membrane.
e. The term 'mosaic' describes a highly-ordered region of the membrane rich in cholesterol and sphingolipids.
Which of the following statements are true?
a. All membrane proteins are bound to the interior of the membrane.-No there are extrinsic proteins also.
b. Both proteins and lipids undergo transverse diffusion from the inner to outer leaflets. Yes, this is true. It is possible due to the flip-flop of channel proteins.
c. Some proteins and lipids undergo lateral diffusion along the surface of the membrane. This is correct as they can diffuse laterally in the membrane.
d. Carbohydrates are found covalently attached to molecules on the outside of the membrane. Yes they are linked covalently to the proteins.
e. The term 'mosaic' describes a highly-ordered region of the membrane rich in cholesterol and sphingolipids.- Mosaic is not highly ordered arrangement. It is present in scattered form.
So, the correct answer is b,c and d.

WINILIT OF the following statements is true about biological membranes? Integral membrane proteins are composed exclusively of alpha-helices Lipid bilayers are easily permeable to various ions Both proteins and lipids readily undergo transverse diffusion ("flip-flopping") from the inside to the outside leaflet of the membrane O Membrane lipids self-assemble via non-covalent interactions to form lipid bilayers O Polar head groups in membrane phospholipids are always negatively charged
Which of these statements about the composition of membranes is true?A) All biological membranes contain cholesterol.B) Free fatty acids are major components of all membranes. C) The inner and outer membranes of mitochondria have different protein compositions.D) The lipid composition of all membranes of eukaryotic cells is essentially the same.E) The lipid: protein ratio varies from about 1: 4 to 4: 1Membrane proteins:A) ere sometimes covalently attached to lipid moieties:B) are sometimes covalently attached to carbohydrate moieties.C) are composed of...

please answer all that you can 1. You have genetically engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) containing a KDEL sequence (GFP-KDEL). When GFP-KDEL is expressed in normal human fibroblasts and examined using fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence appears diffuse across the cytoplasm. How would you explain this observations given that KDEL is supposed to be an ER-specific sorting sequence? A. This engineered GFP would not have a hydrophobic signal sequence to get it into the RER in the first place. B. The...
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes tuberculosis, one of the world’s deadliest diseases. It is an acid-fast bacillus that is 2-4 um in length and 0.2-0.5 um in width. How many weeks, days,& hours would it take to see a M.tuberculosis colony on solid media? Its generation time is listed in the reading (above). Assume that bacterial colonies are not visible to the naked eye unless they contain ≥ 2 millioncells. This species forms aggregates of 5 cells on average. Show your...
