Which type of protein penetrates to the interior of the plasma membrane but does not extend all the way through it?

integral

peripheral

transmembrane

interior

Integral membrane proteins are named so because they are the integral components of the membrane. They cross the plasma membrane ( hydrophobic phospholipid bilayer) one or more times and impart specific function to it. The part of the protein embedded in the bilayer is called as alpha-helical region and is mainly composed of hydrophobic amino acids.

Example- \(Na^{+} K^{+} ATPase\)

then for number 3 its Each phospholipid has a head that contains a phosphate group and a tail that is pure lipid.

then for number 4 its integral.

then for number 5 its enzymes hope this helps cuz it did help me got an 100% on the quiz :)
