13. A peripheral membrane protein is best described as a protein a. embedded within the phospholipid bilayer. b. that is transmembrane in nature. c. loosely attached to the inner membrane leaflet. d. that traverses the cytosol of a living cell. 14.Sphingomyelin is identified in plasma membrane of a healthy living cell. Which of the following describes its location in that membrane? a. The outer membrane leaflet. b. In a transmembrane arrangement. c. Intercalated between phospholipids. d. Anchored to lipids facing the cytosol. 15.Protein Y is covalently linked to a fatty acid chain of phospholipid of the inner leaflet of a cell's plasma membrane, but its structure does not extend to the hydrophobic core of the phospholipid layer. Therefore protein Y a. Has glycosylated region facing the cytosol. b. functions as a ligand receptor. c. is a single transmembrane protein. d.is oriented towards the cytosolic compartment.
