Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
Lipid-soluble molecules are able to diffuse into a cell more rapidly than water-soluble molecules.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Fat-soluble molecules, such as steroids, alcohols, and some vitamins, can dissolve in the lipid portion of the membrane and diffuse in and out the cell. Water soluble molecules can't pass through the hydrophobic portion of the phospholipid layer.

So, the correct option is 'True'.
