When we homogenise any tissue in an acid the acid soluble pool represents

A

cytoplasm

B

cell membrane

C

nucleus

D

mitochondria.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The acid soluble pool has roughly similar composition as of cytoplasm. Biomolecules with molecular weights in the range of 18-800 Daltons come in acid-soluble fraction (with the exception of lipids). Though, the macromolecules from cytoplasm and organelles represents the acid-insoluble fraction.
