A) Structures 1, 3, 5, 2 and 4 are present
in a constantly fluid arrangement that
allows the selectivity of the movement
○ of molecules. Structure 4, present
integrally or peripherally, is responsible
for this selection, while the quantity of 6
regulates the fluidity.
B) The membranes isolate the cell from
the environment, but allow the passage
of water-soluble molecules thanks to
the presence of 2 and 3. The membrane
in scheme is more fluid than that in

A) The reactions are elimination
reactions, with reaction "a" being of type
E2 and reaction "b" being of type E1.
B) Reaction "a" is an E2 type elimination
occurring in one step and reaction "b" is
an SN1 type substitution.
C) Both reactions can result in the
formation of carbocation, but in reaction
"b" the most stable carbocation will be
formed.
D) Both reactions occur at the same rate
○ and have the same number of reaction
steps.
E) Reaction "b" is an E2 type elimination
occurring in two steps and reaction "a" is
