Question

The fluid mosaic model of the membrane stated membranes________

a. are phospholipid bilayer
b. are a phospholipid bilayer between two layers of hydrophilic proteins
c. are a single layer of phospholipids and protein
d. consist of protein molecules embedded in a fluid bilayer of phospholipids

Answer 1

d. consists of protein molecules embedded in a fluid bilayer of phospholipids

Step-by-step explanation:

The fluid mosaic model describes the structure of the plasma membrane as a mosaic of components —including phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins, and carbohydrates—that gives the membrane a fluid character. the majority of membrane in human body consists of phospholipid as there base element.
