If a lipid raft is typically 70 nm in diameter and each lipidmolecule has a diameter of 0.5 nm, about how many lipid moleculeswould there be in a lipid raft composed entirely of lipid? At aratio of 50 lipid molecules per protein molecule (50% protein bymass), how many proteins would be in a typical raft? Explain.(Neglect the loss of lipid from the raft that would be required toaccommodate the proteins).
A. 19,000 lipid molecules, and 380 proteins.
B. 38, 000 lipid molecules and 760 proteins.
C. 9,500 lipid molecules, and 190 proteins.
D. 72,000 lipid molecules, and 1520 proteins.
