Fluid mosaic model of cell membrane was proposed by Singer and Nicolson.
Na+ and K+ ions move across cell membrane by passive transport.
Proteins make up 60 to 70% of the cell membrane
15774.Assertion: Eukaryotic cells have the ability to adopt a variety of shapes and carry out directed movements.
Reason: There are three principal types of protein filaments-actin filament, microtubules and intermediate filaments, which constitute the cytoskeleton.
Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
