According to the fluid mosaic model of membrane structure, proteins of the membrane are mostly:
Answer
A. spread in a continuous layer over the inner and outer surfaces of the membrane
No,channel proteins touch both layers
B. confined to the hydrophobic core of the membrane
No, proteins often project both internally and externally
C. embedded in the lipid bilayer
true
D. free to leave the fluid membrane and dissolve in the surrounding solution
Mostly untrue. the majority of proteins are anchored in the plasma membrane
-
D. randomly oriented in the membrane, with no fixed inside-outside polarity.
-
C. embedded in a lipid bilayer.
-
C; channel proteins.
Hope this helps! :]
