Lipids, or fat.
Lipids, or fat, is used to insulate the body and found in all cell membranes. Fats have insulating capacity, but they are bad conductors of heat.
Of the major biomolecules, lipids, carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids, only nucleic acids are not present in cell membranes. Lipids make up the bilayer; proteins craete pumps and channels; carbohydrates are part of glycoproteins but no RNA or DNA is present.
The most common type of cell membrane is a phospholipid.
The primary structural component of a cell membrane is the phospholid layers. This is mainly made of proteins which facilitate various cell activities.
Lipids are insoluble in water and found in biological membranes.
Phospholipids make up this layer. Phospholipids belong to the family of biological polymers.
