Current Question (ID: 12659)

Question:
Which of the following statement is not true for plasma membrane?
Options:
  • 1. It is present in both plant and animal cell.
  • 2. Lipid is present as a bilayer in it.
  • 3. Proteins are present, integrated as well as loosely associated, with the lipid bilayer
  • 4. Carbohydrate is never found in it
Solution:
Carbohydrates are never found in plasma membrane is not true. The biochemical investigation done on cell membrane clearly demonstrate that the cell membrane possess protein and carbohydrates as biochemical components. The other options are true for plasma membrane. Plasma membrane is present in both plant and animal cells. Lipid is present as a bilayer and lipid component is made of phosphoglycerides (fluid mosaic model by Singer and Nicolson). Proteins are present integrated as well as loosely associated with the lipid bilayer. The ratio of protein and lipid varies considerably in different cell types.
