Which of the following statements is true according to the Fluid Mosaic model of the cell membrane?
The lipid bilayer is sandwiched between two layers of protein.
Proteins are embedded in the fluid bilayer of lipids.
Carbohydrates are found on both sides of the lipid bilayer.

Respuesta :

Proteins are embedded in the fluid bilayer of lipids  is true according to the Fluid Mosaic model of the cell membrane.

Answer:

The answer is Proteins are embedded in the fluid bilayer of lipids.

Explanation:

Fluid mosaic model is a structure suggested for biological membranes consisting of a lipid bilayer formed by phospholipids, whose apolar heads are outward and their apolar tails facing each other, and a series of membrane proteins that can spread laterally into the bilayer. The fluid mosaic model describes the cell membrane as a tapestry of several types of molecules that are in constant motion which helps the cell membrane to maintain its barrier role between the inner and outer environment of the cell.
