Lipid bilayer makes the membrane differently permeable barrier that allows the transport of:
Correct answer: C. Non-polar materials
- A. lonic materials
- B. Polar materials
- C. Non-polar materials
- D. Glycoproteins
Explanation
Lipids,proteins and carbohydrates are responsible for functional diversity of the membranes. Lipid bilayer makes the membrane differentially permeable barrier that allows the transport of non-polar materials across it and prevents ionic materials.
