Identify the different components of the cell membrane using the deacription given below. Use the appropriate number to locate each molecule. 1. Carbohydrate chain - 2 or more monosaccharide unit, either attached or branched found on the outside surface of the cell membrane. 2. Cholesterol found between the hydrophobic tails of the membrane phospholipid. 3. Glycolipid - carbohydrates attached to a lipid molecule. 4. Glycoprotein - carbohydrates attached to a protein molecule. 5. Integral Protein - protein embedded in the phospholipid bilayer that extend in both layers of the membrane. 6. Lipid Tail - the hydrophobic tail of the phospholipid facing the core of the membrane. 7. Peripheral Protein - protein found in the inner or outer surface of the membrane but not embedded on hydrophobic core. 8. Phosphate Head - globular hydrophilic head of the membrane.

Choose the best answer 1) If the lipid bilayer in Section B represents the plasma membrane, which part of the protein is the cytoplasmic domain? There is no way to tell which is the cytoplasmic domain with the information given. Section A is the cytoplasmic domain since it contains disulfide bonds. Section C is the cytoplasmic domain since the N-terminus is always found in the cytoplasm. Section C is the cytoplasmic domain since glycosylation cannot occur on the cytoplasmic domain. Section B is the cytoplasmic domain since it is an alpha-helix. 2) Which type of amino acids is most commonly found in Section B? Hydrophilic Hydrophobic There is no way of knowing which type of amino acids is most commonly found in Section B with the given information Charged 3) If the lipid bilayer in Section B represents the ER membrane, which part of the protein is found INSIDE the ER (in the ER lumen)? The entire protein must be inside the lumen of the ER. Section C is inside the ER…
