Answer

If 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3 phosphatidylserine is cleaved by each of the phospholipases then the resulting compounds will be: 1. phospholipase A1 - the products formed are palmitic acid and the remaining lysophospholipid. 2. phospholipase A2- the products formed are oleic acid and the remaining lysophosphatidic acid. 3. phospholipase C - the products formed are phosphatidylserine and Diacylglycerol. 4. phospholipase D - the products formed are serine and phospholipid.
