Answer:

Embedded in a lipid bilayer. (Ans. C)

Explanation:

Fluid mosaic model explains different observations such as the structure of functional cell membranes. According to this model, there is a thin polar membrane composed of a two-layer of lipid molecules called lipid bi-layer or phospholipid bi-layer in which proteins molecules are embedded. This layer provides fluidity and elasticity to the membrane structure.

These membranes form a continuous barrier around all cells and they are a flat sheet in structure. The lipid bilayer is working as a barrier that keeps proteins, ions and other molecules where they are needed to be and preventing diffusing them to other areas. They are impermeable to most hydrophilic molecules. They are particularly impermeable to ions, which allow cells to regulate pH and salt concentration in membrane through the transport ions across their membranes using proteins knows as ion pumps.

Tobacco is consumed during smoking which contains an addictive substance called Nicotine. Nicotine exerts its effect on the body by stimulating the acetylcholine receptors in the neurons. The stimulation of these receptors stimulates another neurotransmitter like glutamate, dopamine and GABA which produce addictive effects in humans.

Since the acetylcholine is involved in stimulating the other neurotransmitters therefore true is the correct answer.

krek1111 [17]

If the element has a atomic number of forty-four then the amount of neutrons would be "fifty-seven." This element is actually called Ruthenium and it has forty-four protons, and electrons, and it has fifty-seven neutrons and you can determine this by using this equation then solve:

44 + N = 101

= 57

Hope this helps!
