Question

What is the plasma membrane composed of?

Answer 1

Hi! they are mainly composed of phospholipids and proteins. :)

Answer 2

The plasma membrane is composed of monosaccharide (Carbohydrate), fatty acids (Lipids) and amino acids (Protein).

Explanation:

The components of the plasma membrane includes lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol), proteins, and carbohydrates that are appended to a portion of the lipids and proteins.

1. Phospholipid - It is a lipid made of glycerol, two unsaturated fat tails, and a phosphate-connected head gathering. Cholesterol, another lipid made out of four intertwined carbon rings, is found nearby phospholipids in the center of the film.
2. Proteins- Proteins may expand halfway into the plasma layer, cross the membrane completely, or be approximately connected to its inside or outside face. The extents of proteins, lipids, and sugars in the plasma film shift between various sorts of cells.
3. Carbohydrates- Carbohydrates gatherings are available just on the external surface of the plasma layer and are appended to proteins, framing glycoproteins, or lipids, shaping glycolipids.
