All of the liquid molecules in cell membranes amphipathic (or amphiphilic) -that is, they have a hydrophilic ("water loving") or polar end and a hydrophobic ("water fearing") or nonpolar end. The most abundant membrane lipids are the phospholipids. These have a polar head group and two hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Introns need to be removed precisely because the reading frame will be shifted if removed even single nucleotide too many or leaving an intronic nucleotide in the spliced mRNA .

Extra amino acids will be inserted if large pieces of introns are left in the mature messenger RNA.

In both cases, aberrant protien will be produced if the RNA splicing is not precise, hence they are needed to be removed by precision.
