A glycolipid molecule may do which of the following?

a. Lateral diffusion on the plane of the membrane

b. Flexion of its fatty acid tails

c. Rotation about its axis

d. All of the these None of the these

The correct option is A) Lateral diffusion on the plane of the membrane

Explanation:

Glycolipids are the molecules which are the active parts of the cell membrane.

A cell membrane can be described as a semi-permeable membrane through which selected particles can move in and out through processes such as diffusion, active transport, osmosis, passive transport.

Lateral diffusion can be described as the movement of lipids and proteins of the cell membrane which is a property of the glycolipid molecules.
