A researcher made on observation about a protein made by ribosome and eventually used to build a cell's plasma membrane. The protein in the membrane was actually slightly cifferent from the protein made by ribosome, the protein was probably pass through-

Assertion : Peripheral proteins are partially or totally buriend in the membrane. Reason : Integral proteins lie on the surface of membrane.

A student made a pictorial representation of a eukaryotic cell membrane and labelled the components as follows. The student has made errors whikle labelling the components membrane. Which of the following hold true regarding the error ? (i) Protein A should be labelled as trans-membrane protein only and not as integral protein. (ii) The polarity of the protein A should be reversed because the cytosolic phjase always shows reducing environment. (iii) Position of cholesterol molecule shouold be close to polar region as it contains a polar group. (iv) Protein B should be labelled as integral membrane protein and not as peripheral gltcoprotein.
