A plasma membrane is made of a phospolipid bi-layer. Think of a plasma membrane like a grilled cheese sandwich. The bread on the outside of the sandwich is similar to the polar head of the plasma membrane, and the cheese on the inside is similar to the fatty tails on the inside of the membrane. If you tried to run water through the grilled cheese sandwich it would not get through the cheese center, much like water will not get through the center of a plasma membrane.

From which plasma membrane is made?
plasma membrane is made of a bilayer of lipids (or phospholipids) and protiens located inside and outside the same.
Is messenger RNA a constituent of a plasma membrane?
No it is not. A messenger RNA (mRNA) is made in the nucleus of the cell. It has nothing to do with the plasma membrane.
How does nutrients enter a cell?
The plasma membrane.
Give the Chemical nature of plasma membrane and cell wall?
plasma membrane is made of organic molecules called lipds and proteins
What are the molecules in the plasma membrane made of?
phospholipids are the molecules that make up the plasma membrane and they are made of polar (hydrophilic) heads and 2 non-polar (hydrophobic) tails

What is the plasma membrane made of?
Phospholipids.
What is in the plasma membrane?
The plasma membrane is the bi-layer of phospholipids the encompass the cell. It is made of phospholipids, protiens, and sugars.

Another name for plasma membrane?
A cell membrane is also known as a plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane. The cell membrane separates the interior of a cell from its outside environment. The main function of a cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings.
What is the plasma membrane of a cell made of?
It is made up of protein and lipids
What cell structures are made primarily from phospholipids?
cell membrane
What are the molecules in the plasma membrane made of?
phospholipids are the molecules that make up the plasma membrane and they are made of polar (hydrophilic) heads and 2 non-polar (hydrophobic) tails
What is the plasma membrane made up of?
A double layer of phospholipids
Plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells is made up of?
phospholipid
