CELL MEMBRANE AT WORK

This component of a cell membrane has two types: integral and peripheral

It is a concept used to describe the structure of biological cell membranes and is proposed by S.J. Singer and Garth L. Nicolson in 1972

It is a double layer of phospholipid molecules that forms the basic structure of cell membranes.

This part of a phospholipid is hydrophobic.

It acts as a barrier, controlling the passage of substances in and out of the cell.

This component of a cell membrane is found in the form of glycoproteins and glycolipids.

This component of a cell membrane influences the membrane's flexibility and preventing it from becoming too rigid or too fluid.

This part of a phospholipid is hydrophilic.
