Chemistry

Proteins can move laterally in biomembranes and the lateraldistance (r) traveled in a given time (t) is given by, Thediffusion constant for (D) for the membrane protein fibronectin isapproximately 0.7 x 10-12 cm2·sec-1, whereas that for rhodopsin isabout 3.0 x 10-9 cm2·sec-1. a. calculate the distance (r) traveledby each of these proteins in 10 msec (answer in nm; be sure tocircle your answers) b. what can you reasonably assume about theinteractions of these two proteins with other membrane components?Your answer should be 1-4 sentences.
