PLEASE HELP What is the function of glycoproteins?

A) to serve as identification for the cell

B) to allow specific ions or molecules to pass freely

C) to detect bacteria and other foreign bodies outside of the cell

Cell-cell recognition, cross-linking of cells and proteins give strength and stability to the cell

Helps in intercellular communication

Some hormones are glycoproteins

Blood clotting proteins are glycoprotein in nature like thrombin, prothrombin

Mucin glycoprotein found in mucus

It is important for reproduction, because they help in sperm-egg recognition

Immmune system relies on glycoproteins

1) glycoproteins play an important role in cell to cell recognition given that the glycoprotein of one cell can identify and respond to the oligosaccharide patterns (of glycoproteins) of another cell. It's also through this process that binding (adhesion occurs).

2) Glycoproteins are found on the surface of the lipid bilayer of cell membranes. Their hydrophilic nature allows them to function in the aqueous environment, where they act in cell-cell recognition and binding of other molecules.

3) Glycoproteins can be found in tissues, cells, and plasma. Protein glycosylation has long been reported to be important structural components and has function in energy storage, adhesion, and intracellular trafficking, as well as signaling through cell-to-cell interactions 

Explanation:

I hope it helped brilliant plz

answer; i believe the correct answer to the above question is ( friction)

i think it is d. objects resist changes in their state of motion.
