Answer: option D

Explanation:

Although they can be in constant lateral motion. The lipid bilayer membrane is so organized in the sense that the hydrophilic heads which might contain some polar or molecules that can mix with water faces both the cytosol and the outer environment while the hydrophobic tails of both layers that are entirely insoluble in water faces one another thus forming a core that repels mixing. This it is very rare for the possibilities molecules to flip.

Which of these is not a property of lymphatic capillaries?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

They are smaller than blood capillaries.

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries drains the extracellular fluid present between the cell spaces. The fluid is known as lymph as it enters the lymph capillaries. These capillaires drains into lymph vessels that drains to lymph nodes and lymph ultimately enters the venous circulation.

Lymphatic capillaries are slightly larger than blood vessels and these capillaries have close ends. The walls of lymph capillaries are made up  of endothelial cells. The endothelial cells overlap in lymph vessels and when the pressure in ECF is greater these cells move and create a sort of gap for the movement of ECF inside the lymph capillary but when the pressure inside the capillary is greater these cells again overlap and does not allow the lymph to move outside of capillary. Thus lymph capillaries only allow the ECF to enter the capillary but does not allow the lymph to go out from capillary. Lymph capillaries have greater internal pressure than blood vessels.
