Fluid Mosaic Model Double bilayer of lipids (fats) with imbedded, dispersed proteins Bilayer consists of phospholipids, cholesterol, and glycolipids
Glycolipids are lipids with bound carbohydrate Phospholipids have hydrophobic and hydrophilic bipoles Cholesterol provides fluidity of membrane

Membrane Junctions Tight junction – impermeable junction that encircles the cell
Like a sewing stitch

Desmosome – anchoring junction scattered along the sides of cells
Like an anchor

Gap junction – a nexus that allows chemical substances to pass between cells
Like door in submarines or space stations

    8. The phospholipid bilayer has a hydrophylic exterior and a hydrophobic interior, it does not allow polar charged molecules to pass through but it does allow small uncharged molecules to pass through. There are proteins and cholesterol in the membrane. Since it is semi-fluid at low temperatures cholesterol can keep the phospholipids apart, where at higher temperatures it brings the phospholipids together, stabilizing the…

    Phospholipids make up most of the cell membrane, in a phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipid molecules form two layers, with the hydrophilic (water loving) head facing the extracellular fluid and the cytosol (intracellular) fluid, and the hydrophobic (not water loving) tails facing one another. The cell membrane is constructed in such a way that it is semipermeable, and allows oxygen, CO2 and lipid soluble molecules through easily, while other molecules like glucose, amino acids, water, and ions cannot pass through quite as easily. That is the meaning behind the chant “some things can pass, others cannot!”.…
