which of the following describes the plasma membrane?

OR

Write a short note on the plasma membrane.

 

which of the following statements about a typical plasma membrane is correct?

OR

Mention some of the characteristics of a typical plasma membrane.

 

The rough ER is the site of synthesis of many different classes of membrane protein. Some of these proteins remain in the ER, whereas others are sorted to compartments such as the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and the plasma membrane. One measure of the difficulty of the sorting problem is the degree of “purification” that must be achieved during transport from the ER. Are proteins bound for the plasma membrane common or rare among all ER membrane proteins? A few simple considerations allow one to answer this question. In a typical growing cell that is dividing once every 24 hours, the equivalent of one new plasma membrane must transit the ER every day. If the ER membrane is 20 times the area of a plasma membrane, what is the ratio of plasma membrane proteins to other membrane proteins in the ER? (Assume that all proteins on their way to the plasma membrane remain in the ER for 30 minutes on average before exiting, and that the ratio of proteins to lipids in the ER and plasma membranes is the same.)
