According to the fluid mosaic model, our cell membrane is a double membrane of phospho lipid molecules. Proteins are embedded in this layer. Cholesterol is also an important compone of this membrane.
polar layers outside, nonpolar inside, have fun cheating on your homework =]
proteins and lipids
Molecules moving freely.

False; the fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as a flexible boundary of a cell.

Fluid Mosaic Model
Yes, the Fluid Mosaic Model of the cell membrane describes this characteristic.
Fluid Mosaic
It describes the structure of the cell membrane. It is called fluid because the individual phospholipid molecules can move freely within their own monolayer. It is called mosaic because of the pattern produced by the scattered protein molecules when the membrane is viewed from above.

I heard this is true. We're probably doing the same biology homework :)
Fluid mosaic model.
False; the fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as a flexible boundary of a cell.
The Fluid-Mosaic-Model describes the structure of the plasma membrane as a mosaic of components that gives the membrane a fluid character. The founders are S.J. Singer and Garth L. Nicolson.
Its called "the fluid mosaic model" of the cell membrane. This describes the clumping together of phospholipids to form rafts and their motion (along with single phospholipids) throughout the membrane.
