Correct option C) Hydrophilic portions of the lipids are in the interior of the membrane.

Lipids and proteins free to move laterally in membranes because both are inserted into a fluid lipid bi-layer and they are able to diffuse laterally through the membrane.

Lipid Composition of Cell Membranes is a important property of lipid bilayers which is behave as two-dimensional fluids where individual molecules are rotate and move freely in lateral directions

Membrane proteins and phospholipids both are unable to move back and forth between the inner and outer leaflets of the membrane at an appreciable rate. Phospholipids in the lipid bilayer can either move rotationally, laterally in one bilayer, or undergo transverse movement between bilayers.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The answer is 97%.

Explanation:

The zika virus' 1% incidence rate in the population has no effect over the probability of the patient being infected or not. If the test has a 3% false positive rate that means that if it is positive, the results have a 97% chance of being true. Therefore the chance that the person who took the test and had a positive result being actually infected is 97%.

I hope this answer helps.
