Which is a characteristic of the phospholipids in cell membranes? Select one: O Phospholipids in a membrane interact with other membrane molecules, in part, through covalent forces O Phospholipids in a membrane interact with other membrane molecules through non-covalent forces O Increasing the proportion of protein in a membrane increases the amount of membrane symmetry O Increasing the proportion of saturated fatty acids in a membrane increases membrane fluidity O A phospholipid molecule glows in the dark after exposure to visible light

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.
Which molecule would you predict moves through a lipid bilayer most rapidly without the help of a transport protein? Group of answer choices A NH2SO2CH3 B C6H12O6 C C2H4 D CH3OH E C2H5OH
If you added many phospholipids to some water, they would spontaneously orient themselves into something resembling a membrane! Describe why this occurs.
Which of these general statements is TRUE about the lipid called phosphatidylcholine (or PC)? Group of answer choices PC is NOT an aminophospholipid. PC is zwitterionic at normal cell pH. PC resides mainly in the outer leaflet of the membrane bilayer. 3 of these 4 responses are correct PC is a type of cholesterol.
Which of the following are proteins? O cholesterol O ion channels O phospholipids O glycolipids O none of the above
