Answer:

See the answer and explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is composed of:

- Lipid bilayer (highlights: phosphoglycerides such as phosphatidylethanolamine or cephalin, phosphatidylcholine or lecithin, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine; sphingolipids formed by ceramide and fatty acids, and cholesterol)

- Proteins: integral, peripheral and membrane fixed to lipids.

- Glucids: covalently bound to proteins or lipids; they can be poly or oligosaccharides. They form the glycocalix on the outside of the membrane and its function is to support the membrane and cell recognition.

DNA _____.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer would be "contains coded information for the creation of proteins".

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides.

It is the genetic material in most of the living cells present on earth. That is, it controls all the characters and traits of the living organisms.

In prokaryotes, it keeps floating in the cytoplasm whereas it is confined in the well-defined nucleus in eukaryotic cells.

The nucleotide sequence of the DNA is used as the code for the synthesis of the proteins.

It is first transcribed into the nucleotide sequence of mRNA which is further decoded into the amino acid sequence of the proteins.
