When ground slurry of living tissue is strained through a cheesecloth, the filtrate is obtained. Select the correct statement regarding the filtrate.

Options

  1. AIt is acid soluble fraction.
  2. BIt possess inorganic compounds only.
  3. CIt is a mixture of macromolecules and micromolecules.
  4. DOnly 4 compounds are obtained.

Correct answer

A. It is acid soluble fraction.

Step-by-step solution

Filtrate (acid soluble fraction): It consists of thousands of compounds (organic and inorganic). The molecular weight ranges from 18 to 800 Daltons (Da). Thus, these compounds are known as micromolecules or simply biomolecules.
