The steroid lipid cholesterol is a component of membranes. Identify true statements about cholesterol and its role in membrane fluidity. (mark all that apply) O Cholesterol increases membrane fluidity in a membrane that otherwise contains mostly long-chain saturated fatty acids cholesterol stiffens, decreases membrane fluidity, for membranes in the more fluid, liquid crystal state O the entire cholesterol lipid is buried deep in the middle of the lipid bilayer, disrupting the regularity of its structure. O cholesterol fits awkwardly within the lipid bilayer, increasing its melting temperature O cholesterol disrupts the regularity of the membrane structure without affecting the Tm

(Q53) For what reason is the solubility of gaseous ammonia (NH3) significantly higher than that of hydrogen gas (H2) at the same temperature and pressure? O Because they are both polar molecules, the solute-solvent interactions are higher between ammonia and water than they are between water and hydrogen gas O Ammonia reacts with water primarily through dispersion forces O Ammonia has a relatively high boiling point O Ammonia has a larger molar mass than does hydrogen gas O Ammonia is an inorganic (carbon-free) molecule
