Introduction

All biological membranes share one common feature: they are impermeable to polar molecules and charged solutes and permeable to nonpolar compounds. 

Based on studies conducted on membrane composition and the movement of molecules across biological membranes, it was concluded that the fluid mosaic model best describes the structure of the biological membrane. 

According to the fluid mosaic model, the cellular membrane is a lipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it.
