Question
question 9 of 10 which parts of the membrane would help a large carbohydrate molecule enter the cell? a. globular proteins b. fatty acids c. phosphorus groups d. enzymes
Cell membranes have transport - proteins that help in the movement of large molecules like carbohydrates. Globular proteins can act as transport channels or carriers to facilitate the entry of large carbohydrate molecules into the cell. Fatty acids are part of the lipid - bilayer of the membrane but do not directly help in transporting large carbohydrates. Phosphorus groups are part of phospholipids in the membrane and are not involved in transporting large carbohydrates. Enzymes are mainly for catalyzing reactions and not for transporting large molecules across the membrane.
