How might a plant cell compensate for the excessive membrane fluidity that occurs during prolonged exposures to elevated temperature?A) Reduce membrane cholesterol content.B) Alter the lipid composition to have longer fatty acyl tails and fewer double bonds.C) Alter the lipid composition to have shorter fatty acyl tails and more double bonds.D) Alter the lipid composition to have shorter and more unsaturated fatty acyl tails.E) Reduce cholesterol content and alter the lipid composition to have shorter fatty acyl tails.

Respuesta :

Answer:

E) Reduce cholesterol content and alter the lipid composition to have shorter fatty acyl tails.

Explanation:

Reducing the amount of fat makes the tissues or membranes have less plasticity, since these fatty acids with high temperatures increase their fluidity, are less dense and give greater plasticity in their elastic modulus.
