Which of the following statements about the chemical analysis of living tissues and the resulting fractions are correct? S1: The acid-soluble pool generally contains biomolecules with molecular weights ranging from 18 to approximately 800 Daltons. S2: Lipids are technically small molecular weight compounds, but they are found in the acid-insoluble fraction because they form water-soluble vesicles upon disruption of cell membranes. S3: Proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides are examples of true biomacromolecules, typically having molecular weights above ten thousand Daltons. S4: The acid-insoluble fraction represents the entire chemical composition of the cytoplasm, while the acid-soluble pool consists primarily of inorganic constituents. S5: Grinding a living tissue in trichloroacetic acid and straining it through cheesecloth allows for the separation of the acid-soluble pool and the acid-insoluble fraction.
