Answer:
Explanation:
Although protons resemble other positive ions such as Na+ and K+ in their movement across membranes, in some respects they are unique. Hydrogen atoms are by far the most abundant type of atom in living organisms; they are plentiful not only in all carbon-containing biological molecules, but also in the water molecules that surround them. The protons in water are highly mobile, flickering through the hydrogen-bonded network of water molecules by rapidly dissociating from one water molecule to associate with its neighbor, Protons are thought to move across a protein pump embedded in a lipid bilayer in a similar way: they transfer from one amino acid side chain to another, following a special channel through the protein.
c. Light independent reactions
Answer:
The correct answer is cholesterol is nonpolar.
Explanation:
Cholesterol is a complex lipid is synthesized from acetyl CoA.cholesterol is an important constituent of plasma membrane.
Cholesterol is non polar in nature.As a result cholesterol is repelled by water and can be found between the layers of the phospholipid in the plasma membrane.
As cholesterol is non polar it is also hydrophobic in nature.
These are the two domains Archaea & Bacteria.
