The cell membrane is made up of phospholipids which are molecules?
The cell membrane is made of a phospholipid bilayer with the hydrophilic ends out and the hydrophobic ends in. There are globular proteins in between the bilayer that assist in transport.
What does a globular protein do in a cell membrane?
Globular proteins act as enzymes and catalyze organic reactions. They also transmit messages to regulate biological processes. Globular Proteins transport molecules through the membrane, and act as regulators within the membrane.
Is sugar hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
Hydrophilic molecules are those that dissolve in or interact with water. Hydrophilic molecules include carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, salts and metabolic molecules like glucose and amino acids. The fatty component of lipids [fats and oils], the -CH2- tail, is strictly hydrophobic.
What part of the membrane would help a large protein molecule enter the cell?
Globular Proteins
What would a newly discovered biological molecule that is mostly hydrophobic in its structure be classified as?
It would depend on it's chemical structure, but most hydrophobic molecules are either lipids or proteins so it would be classified as either.
Which part of the membrane would help a large protein molecule enter the cell?
globular proteins .
What molecules serves as enzymes?
Globular proteins
What are the parts of the membrane help large molecules pass through it?
Globular proteins.

Globular proteins.
What parts of of the membrane help large molecules pass through it?
Globular proteins.
What part of the membrane helps large carbohydrate molecules enter the cell?
Globular proteins
Could a protein have what is called a globular shape?
Tritiory proteins are globular proteins. Every enzyme is a globular proteins.
What part of the membrane would help a large carbohydrate molecules enter the cell?
Globular proteins
Why hydrophilic proteins when placed in hydrophobic solvent their is denaturation of the proteins?
Hydrophilic molecules are repulsed by surrounding hydrophobic solvent. Hydrophilic tends to connect with hydrophilic, and hydrophobic with hydrophobic. If the protein as a part which is hydrophobic, then it will twist itself to accommodate those new connections, and when they change their form, they denature.
