C. The slope is –4 and the y-intercept is 2.

Explanation:

Given equation is,

Which is the equation of a line,

Since, the slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the line,

By comparing,

m = -4,

⇒ The slope of the given equation is -4,

Now, for the y-intercept, x = 0,

⇒ y = -4(0) + 2 = 2,

Hence, the y-intercept of the given equation is 2.

Option 'C' is correct.

in 1972 the fluid—mosaic membrane model of membrane structure was proposed based on thermodynamic principals of organization of membrane lipids and proteins and available evidence of asymmetry and lateral mobility within the membrane matrix [s. j. singer and g. l. nicolson, science 175 (1972) 720–731].
