From the list below, select the statements that are FALSE. (more than one) OThe hydropathy index plot is used to identify hydrophobic patches inside the cell membrane's architecture. The GPI anchor is a special biomolecule linking a protein to the cell membrane. The phosphoglycerides of the cell membrane contain only saturated or monounsaturated fatty acids. O Phosphoglycerides are to be considered amphiphilic. ONaturally, unsaturated fatty acids typically exist in the trans configuration.
A phospholipid can be used to do all the following except O Increase the fluidity with the presence of unsaturated fatty acid tails. create a bi-layer membrane using amphipathic properties. form a micelle using a single layer and a hydrophobic core.
