This type of membrane protein enables cells to catalyze specific chemical reactions at the inner or outer surface of their plasma membrane.
A)receptors
B)phospholipids
C)cholesterol
D)enzymes
E)ligands

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes are proteins that catalyze specific chemical reactions within a cell, and they are often embedded in the plasma membrane to allow for efficient transport of substrates to the active site. Receptors (A) bind specific ligands to initiate a signaling cascade, phospholipids (B) are components of the membrane structure, cholesterol (C) helps maintain membrane fluidity and stability, and ligands (E) are molecules that bind to a receptor or enzyme.
