Question

fill in the blanks. __________ is a carrier protein that ____________ molecules need to bond in order to be carried in the plasma. cortisol; polar (water soluble) collagen; non - polar (lipid soluble) hemoglobin; polar (water soluble) albumin; non - polar (lipid soluble)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Albumin is a carrier protein in plasma that binds to non - polar (lipid - soluble) molecules to transport them. Cortisol is a hormone, not a carrier protein for this context. Collagen is a structural protein. Hemoglobin is for carrying oxygen in red blood cells, not for general lipid - soluble molecule transport in plasma.

Answer:

D. Albumin; non - polar (lipid soluble)
