hydrophobic, if the protein in the cell membrane is completely in, it means it is hydrophobic, therefore the amino acid chain is also hydrophobic.

What kind of amino acid would you expect to find embedded in the plasma membrane lipid bilayer a. non-polar b. polar c. charged d. cysteine?

The inner environment of the plasma membrane is a non-polar environment - one that does not like the entry of water or molecules that like water. A non polar amino acid is one that does not like water. Therefore, a non-polar amino acid would feel comfortable being embedded in the plasma membrane


In which type of cell would you expect to find a membrane-enclosed nucleus?

You would expect to find a membrane-enclosed nucleus in eukaryotic cells, which are found in plants, animals, fungi, and protists. Eukaryotic cells have complex structures with specialized organelles like the nucleus that are surrounded by a membrane.


In which cellular location would you expect to find ribosomes translating mRNAs that encode ribosomal proteins?

You would expect to find ribosomes translating these mRNAs in the cytoplasm of the cell where protein synthesis occurs.


What organelles would you expect there to be a lot of if the cell made a lot of protein?

You would expect to see a large number of ribosomes (or rough ER) and mitochondria. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis, and mitochondria are the site of cellular respiration. In a cell actively creating a product, you would expect more mitochondria in order to meet the energy needs of the cell and rapid utilization of ameno acids for protein synthesis


The r group or side chain of the amino acid serine is -ch2-oh the r group or side chain of the amino acid alanine is -ch3 where would you expect to find these amino acids in a globular protein in aq?

Serine, being hydrophilic, will be more likely to appear near the surface of a globular protein in solution, and alanine, being hydrophobic, will more likely appear near the centre of the protein. This illustrates the "hydrophobic effect", which is one of the effects that stabilizes the tertiary and quaternary structures of proteins. The hydrophobic effect is not due to an intramolecular force but the tendency of hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acids to interact oppositely with water and segregate into surface and inner regions.

If a protein without a hydrophobic domain is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum's what places would you NOT expect to find it?

If a protein without a hydrophobic domain is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum, you would not expect to find it integrated into the membrane of the ER, targeted to other membrane-bound organelles, or secreted outside the cell. This is because proteins without hydrophobic regions are less likely to be involved in membrane interactions or secretion pathways.

What do you expect to see if the liquid surface tension is less than or equal to the critical surface tension of a surface?

If the liquid surface tension is less than or equal to the critical surface tension of a surface, you would expect the liquid to spread out and wet the surface. This is because the liquid will be able to overcome the cohesive forces holding it together and adhere to the surface.


Which latitudes would you expect to find high surface pressures?

You can expect to find high surface pressures at the poles because they have all of the cold air sinking down to the surface due to the low intensity of insolation on the poles.


Which structure would you expect to observe when examining a prokaryotic cell with a microscope?

a cell membrane
