Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.51P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The phospholipid that is present in the more rigid cell membrane is to be predicted. The reason corresponding to the correct choice of phospholipid is to be stated.
Concept introduction: The phospholipids that contain single bonds in carbon chain are highly compressed. This factor indicates that single bonds present in phospholipids are flexible in nature. The phospholipid that possesses all the single bonds is more rigid than the phospholipid that possesses double bond as well. So, the type of bonds present in carbon chain of the phospholipid determines the rigidity of the cell membrane.
