Most organisms can regulate membrane fluidity by changing the lipid composition. If cells are transferred from a warm en
In cell biology, cellular compartmentalization and cell cycle dictates that SNARE-mediated trafficking, Hayflick limit, P53 and cyclin regulation control proliferation. Therefore There will be an increase in the proportion of 16-carbon fatty acids compared... is correct as it aligns with membrane trafficking and cell cycle control, supported by mechanistic studies
Ref: Alberts et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 6th Edition, Chapter 10, Membrane Structure and Transport, discusses SNARE proteins, vesicle trafficking, ER, Golgi, endosome membranes and selective transport providing compartmentalization foundation.
