Phospholipid Cell Membrane, Lipid Bilayer & Fatty Acids

phospholipid bilayer  The phospholipids in the plasma membrane are arranged in two layers, called aphospholipid bilayer As shown in Figure below, each phospholipid Simple diffusion of lipid-soluble molecules through phospholipid bilayer

The lipid bilayer is a type of membrane that separates the cell from the environment and is made of two layers of phospholipids  The phospholipid bilayer allows certain molecules to enter or exit the cell It is known as semi-permeable The phosholipids allow the membranes
