Best Answer

The cell (plasma) membrane is organised into a bilayer of phospholipids. This means that the hydrophilic (water-lover) polar heads of the phospholipids face out, and the hydrophobic (water-hating) non-polar tails face towards each other in the centre of the layer.

Interspersed within the phospholipids of the membrane are proteins (such as protein channels), cholesterol and carbohydrates.
