In Fluorescence Photobleaching Experiments, Recovery Time Is Defined as the Amount

Multiple Choice

In fluorescence photobleaching experiments, recovery time is defined as the amount of time it takes the bleached area to regain its fluorescence. The recovery time for a cell with fluorescently labeled membrane proteins is

A) longer than the recovery time for a cell with fluorescently labeled lipids because lipids diffuse faster than proteins.
B) shorter than the recovery time for a cell with fluorescently labeled lipids because proteins diffuse faster than lipids.
C) equal to the recovery time for a cell with fluorescently labeled lipids because proteins and lipids diffuse at the same rate.
D) shorter than the recovery time for a cell with fluorescently labeled lipids because lipids diffuse faster than proteins.
