A group of BS Biology students were tasked to design and fabricate different synthetic cell membranes that could be used to simulate cellular activities of certain organisms. Below are the chemical structures of the compounds that are available to them: H2C-OH НС — ОН HO H2C-OH myristic acid glycerol HO alpha-linolenic acid HO-P-0 OH orthophosphate HO NH2 sphingosine OH CH2OH NH3 CH2OH HO ethanolamine HO. OH HO OH lactose (*point of attachment) Given these compounds, help the students assemble the structure of the lipid constituent for the cell membrane appropriate to study the following. Briefly explain your answer. a. a thermophilic bacteria thriving in a hot spring b. a hepatocyte of a sea lion in the Arctic Ocean c. a frog neurocyte
