Question 16
3 / 3 pts
Membrane proteins: Are sometimes peripheral Are sometimes integral Assist in the transport of molecules Can get nutrients in and the waste molecule out of the cell Correct! All are correct ALL ARE CORRECT
Question 17
3 / 3 pts Peripheral membrane proteins Go all the way through the membrane and are firmly attached to the membrane Are firmly attached to the membrane Are lipids that can be either on the top of the cell or bottom of the cell Are associated with the inside or outside surface of the membrane None of the above
ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE SURFACE OF THE MEMBRANE
Question 18
3 / 3 pts Which statement best describes a general feature of membranes? Individual lipid molecules are free to move in the membrane The interior of the lipid bilayer is very polar The membrane breaks easily The polar heads face inward The membrane is rigid INDIVIDUAL LIPID MOLECULES ARE FREE TO MOVE IN THE MEMBRANE
Question 19
3 / 3 pts The following cartoon drawing represents which lipid type? Fatty Acid Triacylglycerol Phosphoglyceride Cholesterol None of these PHOSPHOGLYCERIDE
Question 20
3 / 3 pts Which vitamin is critical for blood coagulation?
Sphingolipid Carotenoid Triacylglycerol Cholesterol Water CHOLESTEROL
Question 24
3 / 3 pts In triacylglycerols, fatty acids are attached to glycerol via a/an______ linkage. -O-CO- -NH- -O-NH- -COO- -C=C- -O-CO-
Question 25
3 / 3 pts A lipid is __________. A fat An oil A molecule that dissolves in a non-polar solvent Is made from isoprene units Is water soluble A MOLECULE THAT DISSOLVES IN A NON-POLAR SOLVENT
Question 26
5 / 5 pts (Short answer) A particular fatty acid molecule has two bends, or kinks, in its structure. What is the cause of the bending or kinking? Double bonds cause the fatty acids to bend or kink about in solution. These double bonds reduce the packing structure of fatty acids making them more liquid-like.
Question 27
5 / 5 pts (short answer) Where in the cell are membranes found? They make up the cell. The cell, itself, and the organelles have membranes.
Question 28
5 / 5 pts (short answer) What type of lipid contains a ceramide? What is the purpose of this lipid? Sphingolipids. Sphingolipids are structural lipids that form membrane bilayers with specific functions. Sphingomyelins are a subtype of sphingolipids that occur in all membrane bilayers but are especially prominent in the myelin sheath of some neurons. This subclass of sphingolipids typically has a polar head group with a neutral charge. Another vital function of sphingolipids is that they define the blood type of individuals.
Question 29
5 / 5 pts (short answer) What is the most significant chemical difference between triacylglycerols and phosphoglycerides that lead to their different functions? Triacylglycerols are nonpolar molecules that can be stored as energy. Phosphoglycerides have both polar and nonpolar regions that permit them to interact with both polar and nonpolar environments making them perfect for membrane bilayers.
