Which substance on the plasma membrane helps identify chemical signals from outside the cell?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

<em><u>The correct option is A) carbohydrate chain</u></em>

Explanation:

The carbohydrate chain present in the cell membrane helps determine the characteristics of the cell and it also helps to identify the chemical signals from outside the cell. Hence, option A is correct.

Other options, like option B, is not correct because the function of the cholesterol in the cell membrane is to prevent the fatty acids from sticking together. Option D is not correct because transport proteins help some molecules to move inside the cell.
