Describe the function of the proteins embedded in the cell membrane
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Protein deeply embedded in the bilayer are called integral membrane proteins. Most of this integral membrane proteins span the whole bilayer and they are called Transmembrane protein.

Because many molecules and ions can not pass through the hydrophobic core of the cell membrane they need a carrier mediated transport to go in and out of the cell. Transmembrane protein serves as channels, receptors (hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitter), tissue specific antigens, ion channels, membrane based enzymes etc that moves in and out of the cell.

Most dietary ______ are too large to be absorbed directly into the capillaries from the small intestine; they must be absorbed i
pashok25 [27]

Most dietary <u>fats </u>are too large to be assimilated and absorbed into the capillaries but they are otherwise absorbed into the lacteals.

<h3>What are dietary fats?</h3>

Dietary fat is necessary for good health. It offers you strength and aids in the absorption of vitamins by your body. Dietary fat has about twice as much energy per gram as carbs and protein.

In the villi ( an organ in the small intestine) is located the lacteal which is a lymphatic capillary that absorbs and assimilates dietary fats. 

Most nutrients are also absorbed through the blood capillaries, but as for dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins, they are absorbed by the lacteals.
