What is the acid soluble pool representative of?
Options
- AThe entire chemical composition of living tissues or organisms
- BThe chemical composition of living tissue from abundance point of view
- CThe cytoplasmic composition
- DThe macromolecules from cytoplasm and organelles
Correct answer
C. The cytoplasmic composition
Step-by-step solution
The acid soluble pool represents roughly the cytoplasmic composition . The macromolecules from cytoplasm and organelles become the acid insoluble fraction. Together they represent the entire chemical composition of living tissues or organisms. In summary if we represent the chemical composition of living tissue from abundance point of view and arrange them class-wise, we observe that water is the most abundant chemical in living organisms.
