This process is called autophagy.

Autophagy is an intracellular process of degradation, which includes the destruction of cytoplasmic components in the lysosomes. These components are considered unnecessary or dysfunctional and that is why they are recycled by the cell.

Autophagy has four sequential steps which are the sequestration, the transport of the components to the lysosome, the degradation, and the recycling and utilization of the degradation products.

Autophagy is considered as an adaptive response to stress by ensuring the survival of the cell and the tissue.

In a membrane, the________of the phospholipids in one monolayer face the________of the phospholipids in the other monolayer.
matrenka [14]

In a membrane, the tail of the phospholipids in one monolayer face the tail of the phospholipids in the other monolayer.

<h3>What is cell membrane?</h3>
  • The cell membrane is a biological membrane that separates and protects the inside of all cells from the outside environment.
  • It is also known as the plasma membrane (PM), cytoplasmic membrane or plasmalemma (extracellular space).
  • The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer, which is made up of two layers of phospholipids interwoven with cholesterol (a lipid component) to maintain  proper membrane fluidity  at different temperatures.
  • Furthermore, membranes are composed of membrane proteins, such as those that cannot be separated across the membrane and function as membrane transporters, and peripheral proteins that simply attach to the  outer membrane of the cell and function as membrane transporters. enzymes to help the cell interact with its environment.
  • The integrated glycolipids of the outer lipid layer perform a similar function.
