Questions and Answers

Which of the following is true about the outer mitochondrial membrane?

  • It does not contain any enzymes
  • It allows molecules of any size to freely diffuse
  • It is thicker than the eukaryotic plasma membrane
  • It contains integral membrane proteins called porins (correct)
  • What is the main function of the porins in the outer mitochondrial membrane?

  • To degrade tryptophan
  • To allow molecules of any size to freely diffuse (correct)
  • To actively move large proteins across the membrane
  • To elongate fatty acids
  • How do larger proteins enter the mitochondrion?

  • They freely diffuse through the outer mitochondrial membrane
  • They bind to translocase of the outer membrane
  • They actively move across the membrane through porins
  • They are transported by specialized translocate complexes (correct)
  • What is the protein-to-phospholipid ratio of the outer mitochondrial membrane?
