Alexander Oparin hypothesized that living cells evolved from coacervates; what was the "boundary" material of the coacervates Oparin made, and how does this boundry differ from present day liposome membranes?
A. Oparin used a phospholipid bilayer to build the coacervates, it is the same as the bilayer found in present day lysosomes.
B. Oparin's coacervates were surrounded by a tight skin of water molecules, the same as present day lysosomes.
C. Oparin's coacervates were surrounded by carbohydrates and lipids, unlike present day lysosomes which have a carbohydrate membrane only.
D. Oparin's coacervates were surrounded by a tight skin of water molecules; present day lysosomes have a phospholipid bilayer for their membrane.
E. Starch was the main component in Oparin's coacervate boundry; lysosomes also use mainly carbohydrates for their membrane.
D. Oparin's coacervates were surrounded by a tight skin of water molecules; present day lysosomes have a phospholipid bilayer for their membrane.
