Question

8. Explain in detail what factors would tend to increase membrane fluidity (Temperature, protein content and etc.) 9. Using the figure below, discuss what the effects would be to the various types of bonds if you were to increase the pH of the environment, decrease the pH of the environment, in crease the temperature to over 100°C and for each condition describe how this would affect the proteir structure. van der Waals interactions (dispersion forces) act between hydrophobic side branches. ypeptide back bone S. Disulfide link (covalent bond) CH2 lonic bond 10. Compare and contrast photosynthesis and cellular metabolism using a simple "big picture" hand drawn graphic. Include facts about each and identify how these systems are similar and how they utilize interchangeable components.. Principles of Biology Bio 110

Explanation / Answer

8) Membrane fluidity is effected with a number of factors like Temperature, fatty acids, and cholesterol

Whereas at high temperature, the lipids move around, are organized far apart and rearrange themselves making it more fluid. Hence increasing the fluidity.
