New cards

what makes up the cell membrane

phospholipids

transport proteins (carrier/channel)

glycoproteins and glycolipids

peripheral proteins

cholesterol

2
New cards

why do the phospholipids form a bilayer

when there are many phospholipids, the hydrophobic fatty acid chains avoid the aqueous cytoplasm and extracellular space, facing inwards, while the hydrophilic heads have an affinity for water and face outwards

3
New cards

fluid-mosaic model

arrangement of phospholipids with various proteins and lipids embedded in it

4
New cards

purpose of membrane

Allow certain molecules in while keeping others out

Containing cell contents
