A)transporters
B)receptors
C)ligands
D)ion channels
E)linkers

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The description in the question matches the function of linker proteins. Linkers are responsible for anchoring cells to neighboring cells and to protein filaments found inside or outside the cell. Transporters are involved in moving molecules across the membrane, receptors bind to specific molecules, ligands are molecules that bind to receptors, and ion channels allow ions to cross the membrane.
