Question

if a person tried to exist on a truly fat - free diet, what cellular components would likely not be synthesized in adequate amounts?
○ cell membranes
○ nucleic acids
○ cell - surface molecules
○ structural proteins
○ enzymes

Explanation:

Cell membranes are primarily composed of phospholipids (a type of fat), so a fat-free diet would limit their synthesis. Cell-surface molecules often include glycolipids (lipid-carbohydrate complexes), which also require fats. Nucleic acids (made of nucleotides), structural proteins, and enzymes (proteins) do not depend on dietary fats for their synthesis.

Answer:

cell membranes, cell-surface molecules
