Q1. A patient is treated with a drug that blocks insulin receptors on the cell membrane. These receptors are chemically classified as which type of conjugated molecule?
Answer: Glycoproteins
Explanation: Glycoproteins on the cell surface act as receptors for hormones and neurotransmitters. Glycolipids are primarily involved in cell-to-cell signaling and membrane stability.
