Fluid mosaic model state that
A. The most common molecule in the membrane is protein
B. The unique properties of cell types are determined by their phosphates
C. The membrane is highly mixture of phospholipids and proteins
D. The membrane structure come from the interaction of water and proteins
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Fluid mosaic model state that the membrane is highly a mixture of phospholipids and proteins.The biological model, which was devised by Seymour Jonathan Singer and Garth L. Nicolson in 1972, describes the cell membrane as a two-dimensional liquid that restricts the lateral diffusion of membrane components.
It is a lipid bilayer (two molecule thick layer consisting primarily of amphipathic phospholipids) in which protein molecules are embedded. The phospholipid bilayer gives fluidity and elasticity to the membrane.
