Why are some physicians are careless when prescribing benzodiazepines for patients suffering from severe anixety?
Which is a characteristic of the phospholipids in cell membranes?
Select one:
Phospholipids in a membrane interact with other membrane molecules, in part, through covalent forces
Phospholipids are lipid molecules with a polar head and a non-polar tail, where the interaction of these components with other molecules of itself, results in membrane formation
Increasing the proportion of protein in a membrane increases the amount of membrane symmetry
Increasing the proportion of saturated fatty acids in a membrane increases membrane fluidity
A phospholipid molecule glows in the dark after exposure to visible light
