Suppose a researcher successfully produced a membrane composed of saturated triglycerides rather than from phospholipids. What characteristics would you expect the saturated triglyceride membrane to have

The options are not given, here are the options from another websites.

a.hydrophilic molecules would easily pass through the membrane.

B. hydrophobic molecules would be attracted to the membrane.

c. the membrane would be fluid at room temperature

d. the saturated triglycerides would not form a bilayer.

The correct options are b and d.

hydrophobic molecules would be attracted to the membrane.

the saturated triglycerides would not form a bilayer.

Explanation:

Triglycerides are substances that are comprises of a higher degree of saturated fatty acid chains in which carbons are connected or linked up by single bonds. Triglycerides are non polar hydrophobic molecules and are therefore attracted by hydrophobic interactions ( that is between water and hydrophobes). Triglycerides helpin maintenance of cell membranes by forming a lipid bilayer.

correct answer is option a.

tropopause, stratopause and mesopause have all in common aspect that is point of maximum temperature in its layer of the atmosphere. all layers of atmosphere observe abrupt change in temperature. tropopause is the boundary between troposphere and stratosphere. stratopause is the boundary between stratosphere and mesosphere. mesopause is the boundary between mesosphere and thermosphere. these all boundaries are ranges between altitude of 0 to 80 km.
