Lipid bilayers comprising high concentrations of gangliosides are very rare. Which of the followingexplanation is/are true?. Please note, there could be more than one answer.Gangliosides are not used as energy storage molecules.The hydrophobic tails on gangliosides form a conical shape rather than a cylindrical shape making closepacking difficult.□ Gangliosides contain large headgroups making close packing difficultGangliosides contain trans fatty acids resulting in a bent hydrophobic tail making close packing difficultGangliosides contain several sugar molecules that can only localize to the cytosol preventing bilayer formation

A lipid bilayer is a fundamental structural component of cell membranes in living organisms. It is…

When bonding 1 glycerol molecule, with 3 fatty acid molecules, you can build a tryglceride. In addition to the tryglyceride, can you make any other molecules in the bonding process?
Although the first two carbons of fructose and glucose are identical in structure to DHAP and GADP (from glycolysis), DHAP and GADP equilibriate on their in solution to favor the ketone over the aldehyde, while fructose and glucose do not. Why? a)The larger size of the molecule sterically hinders the isomerization b)The larger sugars have more OH groups which hydrogen bond and disrupt isomerization c)The larger sugars cyclize, and there is no carbonyl to isomerize in the cyclic form d)The larger sugars cyclize, and in the cyclic form the hydrogen bonding is very strong e)The larger sugars are less soluble in water than the smaller sugars
Lipoproteins transport dietary fats through the bloodstream and deliver them to the cells.
