The model used to explain the components and properties of the plasma membrane is called the fluid mosaic.
structural model of plasma membrane is called the selectively permeable membrane Structural model of the plasma membrane is called Fluid Mosaic Model.
A plasma membrane is described as mosaic because all the different components such as proteins and phospholipids, of varying shape and size, give the effect of the stones of a mosaic. It is described as fluid because these components can move freely within the membrane.
False; the fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as a flexible boundary of a cell.

A plasma membrane is described as mosaic because all the different components such as proteins and phospholipids, of varying shape and size, give the effect of the stones of a mosaic. It is described as fluid because these components can move freely within the membrane.
The plasma membrance is a mosaic model- thus named because the constituent molecules of the membrane, e.g. phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins, exist in a state of tight associations and fluidity. These associations resemble a mosaic.
a model of plasma membrane of cell
The term used to describe the plasma membrane because of it's oily nature and embedded proteins is the fluid-mosaic model.The plasma membrane that surrounds each cell has two layers of phospholipids (fat with phosphorous attached).Each phospholipid molecule has a head that is attracted to water (hydrophilic) and a tail that repels water (hydrophobic) . Both the layers of the plasma membrane have the hydrophilic ends pointing to the outside forming the outer layer of the plasma membrane and the hydrophobic tails pointing inside and forming the inner layer of the plasma membrane.Proteins and substances such as cholesterol become embedded in the bi-layer of the plasma membrane giving it a mosaic look.At body temperature the plasma membrane has a liquid consistency like the vegetable oil and proteins and other substances are able to move across the plasma membrane. Due to this reason the plasma membrane is described using the term fluid-mosaic model.
