Integral or Peripheral proteins classification is based on
(1)protein size
(2)ease of extraction
(3)ease of function
(4)ease of study
The most improved model of the structure of the cell membrane is

(D)Both A and C
The ability to move within the membrane is measured as its
(1)liquidity
(2)fluidity
(3)viscosity
(4)stability
The fluid nature of the membrane is also important from the point of view of functions like
(1)cell growth
(2)secretion
(3)cell division
(4)All of the above
The most important function of plasma membrane is the
(1) transportation of molecules across it
(2)cell division
