The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.
The cell membrane is primarily composed of a mix of proteins and phospholipids
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes. They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).
They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol and extracellular fluid.
The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable
ok so I've done this problem before trust me:
A. bundles of microtubules that separate to opposite poles of a cell - CENTRIOLES
B. prepares protein-packed vesicles for release outside of the cell - VESICLES
C. small storage sacs containing water, food, and waste - VACUOLES
D. rough and smooth organelle that produces protein, steroids, and lipids - ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
E. tiny sacs at the end of the ER which contain protein - GOLGI COMPLEX
F. chains of protein fibers that provide support and shape - CYTOSKELETON
G. powerful enzymes used to process cellular activity - LYSOSOMES & PEROXISOMES
H. whip-like structures on cells that are used for movement - FLAGELLA
I. produces and assembles proteins - RIBOSOMES
An example of a false negative is taking an HIV test and having the test come back negative to say the patient is clean, but in reality they have HIV. Another example of a false negative is a woman taking a pregnancy test saying "not pregnant" (i.e. test is negative), but she actually is pregnant. Between those two examples, it is better to have a false negative pregnancy test because it is non life threatening.
A false positive example would be getting bad news you have cancer, when you actually don't have cancer. Another false positive example is a test saying you have a cold virus, when in actuality you don't. The first example mentioned would have the patient likely go through intense chemo treatments which would greatly affect their livelihood. The second example is a more harmless false positive as it would involve at most a flu shot if anything.
