Which one of the following is a feature of Membrane ?
General KnowledgeBiology
- ABilayer of phospholipid molecule in which proteins and cholesterol are embedded
- BBilayer of proteins molecule in which lipid and cholesterol are embedded
- CBilayer of neutral lipid in which proteins and cholesterol are embedded
- DBilayer of neutral lipid lacking cholesterol and proteins 48
Explanation
The fluid mosaic model describes the cell membrane as a bilayer of phospholipid molecules in which proteins and cholesterol are embedded. It is not a protein bilayer or a neutral-lipid bilayer. Hence option A is the feature of the membrane.
