1 answer:

6 0

There are three primary systems in the body that act as a buffer, in order to help maintain pH stability. The first is known as the phosphate buffer, which neutralizes excess hydroxide ions as they enter cellular fluid. The second is called the protein buffer, and maintains acidity in the body. The hemoglobin in blood, which binds to acids in the bloodstream, is one such example of this system. The third system is called the carbonic acid bicarbonate buffer, which neutralizes the acids generated by various metabolic processes, such as digestion and respiration.

Which of the following is not a function performed by a membrane protein?

Reptile [31]

Enzyme synthesis cannot be a function performed by a membrane protein.

Explanation:

Membrane protein is found on the lipid bilayer that surrounds the cell. Enzymes are the globular structures of proteins which are made by the translation of the specific m-RNA in the cytosol of the cell and not by the membrane proteins. While a membrane protein can be used as a pump to transport ions across the membrane, it can be used for cell-cell or cell-matrix adhesion and as a hormone binding protein.
