Which of the following statements are TRUE about the phospholipid bilayer? Select all that apply. Integral proteins have at least one part touching the inner 'tails' of the membrane.

The plasma membrane has a hydrophobic interior due to the two present in each phospholipid found in the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. The plasma membrane allows some molecules to cross but not all. Therefore, the plasma membrane is said to be Molecules that are nonpolar and hydrophobic will cross the membrane with ease by Does this process require energy?
