Select the single best answer. The composition of a cell membrane is not uniform for all types of cells. Some cell membranes are more rigid than others. Rigidity is determined by a variety of factors, one of which is the structure of the carbon chains in the phospholipids that comprise the membrane. Two examples of phospholipids are shown below, with one having C–C double bonds in its carbon chains. Which phospholipid would be present in the more rigid cell membrane? CH2-O Compound A: H-Ć-O. (CH3),NCH,CH2- -CH2 CH2 Compound B: H-C-O. (CHaŃCH,CH2-0-P-o-CH2 Compound A Compound B

Answer and draw what is given in the question NEATLY
Lipid bilayers form spontaneously in a process driven by the hydrophobic effect. Explain how the hydrophobic effect drives bilayer formation from individual lipids in an aqueous environment. Describe how the physical properties of the lipid bilayer are determined by the chemical properties of the membrane lipid components. Diagrams are encouraged for both parts of the question.

PLEASE SOLVE PART d. and e.
. The structure of certain porin proteins is organized into an interesting beta-barrel, in which each beta strand spans the lipid bilayer at an ~45° angle. Using this information, together with general dimensions of the lipid bilayer, what would be the approximate number of amino acids found within a beta strand in an aquaporin protein complex? Explain how you arrive at your answer.
