are embedded in the cell membrane

Explanation:

Voltage-gated ion channels are transmembrane proteins activated by changes of the electrical potential across the plasma membrane. Structurally, voltage-gated Potassium (K) channels are composed of six transmembrane helices where amino- and carboxyl-terminal peptides are localized intracellularly (in the cytoplasm). The Helices 1 to 4 (H1-H4) comprise the voltage sensor domain that forms an anti-parallel helical bundle. H4 has many positively charged amino acids (Arg and Lys residues) which are key to the voltage-sensing function. Finally, Helices 5 and 6 (H5-H6) form the channel pore which is localized in the center of the protein.

the answer is 95 degrees
