Why was it unexpected that transporter proteins are required for transmembrane fatty acid transport?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. because these molecules are too small for their diffusion to be impeded by membranes

  2. because it is the cytosolic fatty acid binding-protein–fatty acid complex that is the actual transported complex

  3. because these molecules are sufficiently hydrophobic to diffuse across membranes

  4. because triglycerides carried by lipoproteins were thought to be the only source of fatty acids in the circulation

It is possible to calculate the number of clones that must be present in a gene library to give a probability of obtaining a particular DNA sequence. This formula is:
 
where N is the number of recombinants, P is the probability and f is the fraction of the genome in one insert. Thus for the E. coli DNA chromosome of 5 × 10 6 bp andan insert size of 20 kb ( f = 0.004), the number of clones needed ( N ) would be 1 × 10 3 ,with a probability of P will be
