Cholesterol in Cell membrane strengthens and helps to maintain the fluid nature of a cell regardless of temperature

<u>Explanation:</u>

All organisms are made up of one or more cells. Each cell is protected or differentiated by a covering called as the cell membrane. Phospholipids are the basic structure of the cell membrane. Cholesterol prevents the loss of fluid from phospholipids.

Cell membrane has a lipid layer and cholesterol which is placed between the phospholipids to maintain the fluid nature of the cell under different temperature. Cholesterol prevents the cell from solidifying and helps maintain the fluid. Cholesterol actually acts as a buffer between different temperatures.

Ill need to know what change you predicted, but natural selection can contribute to the change by allowing the organism with the mutation (advantage or disadvantage) to either parish or aid in its survival, resulting in that mutation to be passed on the other generations through breeding

explain the membrane dynamics of the glucose transporters and how the structure dictates its function g

Leto [7]

Answer:

Glucose serves as a major source of energy for metabolic processes in mammalian cells. Since polar molecules cannot be transported across the plasma membrane, carrier proteins called glucosse transporters are needed for cellular uptake.
