SSC CHSL 24th May 2022 Shift-2

Model of Golgi bodies

Cell theory

Fluid mosaic model

Vacuole theory

- Correct option: 3?? Fluid mosaic model

- The fluid mosaic model describes the structure of cell membranes.

- It suggests that the membrane is a fluid combination of lipids and proteins.

- Lipids provide a flexible bilayer, allowing proteins to move laterally.

- 1?? Model of Golgi bodies

- Refers to a specific organelle involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids.

- It’s not related to the fluidity of cellular membranes.

- 2?? Cell theory

- A fundamental principle of biology stating that all living things are made of cells, and cells are the basic unit of life.

- Does not address the fluid nature of cell membranes.

- 4?? Vacuole theory

- Concerns the storage compartments within cells, primarily in plants.

- Not related to membrane dynamics or protein movement.
