When a globular cytoplasmic protein folds into its proper tertiary structure, which of the following correctly states the class of amino acids that will be in the interior and the reason why this class will be in the interior? Polar amino acids will be in the interior because they line the binding pocket for a hydrophilic ligand Nonpolar amino acids will be in the interior because they line the binding pocket for a hydrophilic ligand Charged amino acids will be in the interior because they would be bound by ions in the aqueous exterior Nonpolar amino acids would be in the interior because they avoid the exterior aqueous environment. Nonpolar amino acids will be in the interior because the protein would bind the membrane bilayer if they were on the exterior

Osmosis

In simple words, osmosis is the slow, gradual movement of a liquid through a membrane. But there are nuances to this process. For instance, there has to be an imbalance in the distribution of solute in the liquid on either side of the membrane, which has to be semipermeable. The liquid in the region with a lower solute concentration moves to the region with a higher concentration, thereby displacing the solution in the process. The objective is to equalize the concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane; the displacement of liquid can be viewed as a byproduct of this equalization. Since there is no energy required to carry osmosis, it is considered a passive process.
