Summary Introduction
To draw: A simple sketch to illustrate how a transmembrane protein might be positioned in a lipid bilayer.
Concept introduction: Membrane proteins are a part of biological membrane that primarily interacts with it to perform various functions in the cell. There are various membrane proteins that help in the transportation of molecules in and out of the cell. Based on extend of attachment to the membrane, the membrane proteins are classified as integral proteins, peripheral proteins, and transmembrane proteins.

When phospholipids are added to an aqueous environment (consisting mostly of water) the phospholipid molecules will spontaneously assemble into a phospholipid bilayer where the layers are held together by weak attractive forces between molecules. These structures are often seen in nature as cell and organelle membranes. 12. Consider animal cells, which are only bound by a cell membrane and plant cells which are bound by both a cell membrane and a cell wall. Are cell membranes flexible (fluid)? Provide specific examples to support your answer. 13. Explain why a phospholipid bilayer is flexible. terms of the strength of the forces that hold it together. 14. Refer to Model 1. a. What happens to the shape of the hydrophobic tail in a phospholipid when a double bond is present in the carbon chain? b.
