Document Summary

Biology 130- module 3- practice multiple choice questions. Plasma membranes: enclose entire cell, have openings for osmosis, allow nothing to enter. Membrane functions do not include: signal transduction, energy transduction, dna transduction. In a membrane proteins penetrate: part way into lipid bilayer, cannot penetrate lipid bilayer. Phospholipids contain a ____ backbone, and are phosphoglycerides: glycerol, glycoglycerol, gags. Serine is a phosphoglyceride which produces the: cell suicide signal, cell drinking signal, cell maturation signal. Sphingolipids contain: amino acid and long hydrocarbon chain, amino acid and glucose molecules, amino acid and protein. False about cholesterol: 50% of animal plasma membranes, helps control cell membrane fluidity, can create cell membranes from nothing. Glycoproteins are present in: chitin and gags of ecm, oligosaccharides, glucose creation. Which is not a class of membrane proteins: Intergral proteins: pass through lipid bilayer, cannot penetrate lipid bilayer, are not a true protein.

1.) Which of the following statement best describes how bacteriain a hot spring control the fluidity of their plasma membrane?

They decrease the percentage of lipids with unsaturatedhydrocarbon chains in their plasma membrane

Because they don't synthesize cholesterol, they cannot controlmembrane fluidity and therefore have a very fluid plasmamembrane.

They use cholesterol to prevent membranes from becoming toofluid.

They form lipid rafts to prevent too much fluidity

They increase the percentage of lipids with unsaturatedhydrocarbon chains in their plasma membrane.

2.) Which activity can only be done by a transmembraneprotein?

To be phosphorylated

To signal from one side of the membrane to the other

To be glycosylated

To associate with other proteins

To bind transiently to a lipid bilayer
