Cell membrane is composed of
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A Phospholipid
- The cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer that are selectively permeable membranes which separate the interior of the cells (cell organelles and cytoplasm) from the outside environment or the extracellular space.
- These biological membranes or bilayers are made up of amphiphilic phospholipids which have both hydrophilic phosphate head and a hydrophobic tail that consists of two fatty acid chains.
- Lipoproteins are single layered membrane composed of phospholipid molecules on their outside which surrounds a central core.
- So, the correct answer is 'Phospholipid'.
