Which of the following statements is true about the structure of the cell membrane?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is:

The two layers of the plasma membrane are identical.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is called a lipid bilayer because it is composed of two layers of cells and it makes the boundary of cell.

The other three statements are false because

Plasma membrane is semipermeable i.e it allows the transport of materials inside and outside the cell.

The proteins in the plasma membrane are integral proteins

The proteins in the plasma membrane are extensively folded and protruding from the membrane are in contact with inside and outside the cell.

In the context of protein digestion, protein breakdown into its amino acid constituents is completed by proteases produced in the small intestine

Protein-degrading enzymes are referred to as proteases. These enzymes are produced by bacteria, fungus, plants, and mammals.
Proteins in the body or on the skin are broken down by proteolytic enzymes.
This may aid in digestion or the breakdown of proteins that contribute to inflammation and pain.
The small intestine, pancreas, and stomach all manufacture protease.
The stomach and small intestine are where the majority of chemical reactions take place.
Pepsin is the primary digestive enzyme that targets proteins in the stomach.
Proteases are released by the pancreas into the proximal small intestine, where they combine with proteins that have already been altered by gastric secretions and break them down into amino acids, which are then absorbed and utilized by the body as necessary.
