- Fatty acids are carboxylic acids that have long hydrocarbon chains attached to a carboxylate group. How does a saturated fatty acid differ from an unsaturated fatty acid? How are they similar?arrow_forwardClassify each of the following fatty acids as long-chain, medium-chain, or short-chain. a. Lauric (12:0) b. Oleic (18:1) c. Butyric (4:0) d. Stearic (18:0)arrow_forwardV F2 # 3 E 80 F3 What is the difference between integral and peripheral proteins? $ 4 F4 R A) Integral proteins are required for the cell to function, while peripheral proteins are accessory. B) Integral proteins are found on the outside of the cell, while peripheral proteins are found on the inside of the cell. C) Integral proteins extend through the lipid bilayer, and peripheral proteins are just on the surface of the inside or outside of the cell. Question 11 of 19 D) Integral proteins are found on the inside of the cell, while peripheral proteins are found on the outside of the cell. E) Integral proteins are channel proteins and peripheral proteins act as enzymes. % 5 F5 T <6 MacBook Air F6 Y & 7 ♡ F7 U * 8 DII F8 1 ( - 9 F9 0 O F10arrow_forward
