Which of the following statements is/are consistent with the fluid-mosaic model of membranes? (Select all that apply.) The lipid

bilayer and proteins exist side by side without covalent bonds between them. The membrane interior appears granular on an electron micrograph. Integral membrane proteins span the membrane. Some proteins and lipids undergo lateral diffusion along the inner or outer surface of the membrane. Carbohydrates are covalently bonded to the outside of the membrane. None of the Above

The correct answers are: The lipid bilayer and proteins exist side by side without covalent bonds between them and  Some proteins and lipids undergo lateral diffusion along the inner or outer surface of the membrane

According to fluid mosaic model, there is a lipid bilayer that gives fluidity and in which the protein molecules are embedded.  

The membrane is mosaic because there is a pattern of different types of molecules that are put together. Molecules are constantly moving in two dimensions.

Components of the cell membrane include:

• Phospholipids – Form a bilayer  

• Cholesterol –improves stability and reduce fluidity

• Proteins –integral (transmembrane) or peripheral  

• Sugars-usually attached to proteins.

Which of the following are true of trans-fatty acids?
pogonyaev

The following given statements are true of trans-fatty acids:

A. Often created by treating plant oils with hydrogen

D. Occur naturally in in food

<u>Explanation:</u>

The unsaturated fatty acids that are produced by a method called hydrogenation through the addition of a hydrogen molecule to vegetable oils is understood as "Trans-fatty acids". According to the hydrogenation process the composition of the fatty acids varies. The unsaturated fatty acids trans structure receives one double conjugated bond and obtains a straight shape and rectifies the twisted shape created by cis bonds.

Increasing the concentrations of trans-fatty acids particularly in the red blood cell membranes can lead to blockage of the blood vessel as a whole and enhance the risk of heart disease. Meat and dairy products kind natural food materials include trans fatty acids.

4. A bacterium is discovered with new mutated form of isocitrate dehydrogenase that catalyzes the same reaction but produces hyd
Ksju [112]
Isocitrate + NAD+ -> a-ketoglutarate + CO2 + H2

The amount of ATP produced from one molecule of glucose will decrease because NADH is no longer produced in the isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction. Without generation of this high energy electron carrier there will be less electrons from one molecule of glucose that are transferred to and through the electron transport chain. So there will be less protons (H+ ions) pumped into the intermembrane space. So there will be less of a H+ ion gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane to drive the synthesis of ATP by ATP synthase.
