Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements. which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements. the framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center. because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane. the diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions. the kinky tails of some proteins keep the membrane fluid by preventing the component molecules from packing solidly together. membranes include a mosaic, or mix, of carbohydrates embedded in a phospholipid bilayer.

answer; i believe the correct answer is ( proteins );

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
