Yes, that is why it is also referred to as a phospholipid bilayer.
Yes it does.
This is known as the phospholipid 'bilayer' - and the molecules are arranged so that the lipid tails are facing each other, and the phosphate 'heads' are on the outside.
yes
Protein!
The continuous part of the plasma membrane is the outer layer.
The plasma membrane has a double layer of phospholipids with _____ dispersed throughout.
The intrinsic properties of the hydrophilic/hydrophobic/hydrophilic double layer of the membrane gives it support, due to the hydrophobic effect.
The lipid tails are found in the centre of the membrane. The membrane is made out of phospholipids. These have a phosphate head which is hydrophilic and a lipid tail that is hydrophobic. This form a bilayer (double-layer).
The plasma membrane is a bi-layer, so yes.
A double layer of phospholipids makes up the plasma membrane.

The continuous part of the plasma membrane is the outer layer.
The plasma membrane has a double layer of phospholipids with _____ dispersed throughout.
The plasma membrane is a bi-layer, so two.
A phospholipid bi-layer.
The double layer of phospholipids is called the phospholipid bilayer. It forms the basis of every membrane, both the plasma membrane and all internal membranes.The idea that the bilayer has protein molecules embedded in it is the essence of the fluid mosaic model of the cell membrane.
