Which of the following is TRUE regarding how cholesterol affects the fluidity and permeability of biological membranes?
At low temperatures, cholesterol increases membrane fluidity and permeability by reducing the extent to which phospholipids pack tightly together.
At low temperatures, cholesterol causes phospholipids to pack more tightly together, and therefore, decreases membrane fluidity and permeability.
At high temperatures, cholesterol decreases membrane fluidity by reducing the extent to which phospholipids pack tightly together.
At high temperatures, cholesterol increases the spacing between phospholipids and therefore, increases membrane fluidity and permeability.
