<span>The most dominant chemolithotrophs in pelagic waters are ammonia-oxidizing archaea. The first step in nitrification is performed by ammonia oxidising microorganisms that convert ammonia into nitrite ions. Science has known about nitrifying bacteria for over a hundred years now thanks to the discovery of S. Winogradsky.</span>

The structure of the cell membrane was discovered in 1895 by _________. finding a similarity to olive oil, he discovers membrane

Sidana [21]

In 1895, Ernest Overton proposed that cell membranes were made of lipids

According to the lipid bilayer theory, which Gorter and Grendel put forth in 1925, the cell membrane bilayer structure can be described using crystallographic research and observations of soap bubbles.

<h3>What is Cell membrane ?</h3>

All cells have a cell membrane, also known as a plasma membrane, which separates the interior of the cell from the external environment.

A semipermeable lipid bilayer makes up the cell membrane. The movement of materials into and out of the cell is controlled by the cell membrane.
Biological membranes serve three main purposes. First, they prevent harmful substances from entering the cell. Second, they have receptors and channels that let certain molecules, like ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products,
Third, they divide metabolic processes that are necessary but incompatible that take place within organelles.
