Presence of Cholesterol, Unsaturated Fat, and moderate Temperatures. The Cholesterol will help the cell retain fluidity even at lower temperatures, but higher temperatures will cause it to "Gum Up"
A cell membrane is mainly made up of phospholipids. These are typically unsaturated and mono-unsaturated. Any molecule besides a mono-unsaturated phospholipid will directly contribute to increased fluidity. These biological molecules include poly-unsaturated phospholipids, cholesterol molecules and even membrane proteins.
Things which increase the distance between constituent parts of a cell membrane without desintergrating it or decrease the weak eletrostatic interactions between parts. And example of something that does the latter is cholesterol.
Unsaturated lipids make the cell membrane more fluid. The double bonds of the chain causes "kinks" in the tail, making it harder to pack the lipids and thus increasing fluidity.
Unsaturation, that is, double or triple bonds.
unsaturated lipids. cholesterol.

How the foc will people know tht jeez
Fats are one of the three major substances that form animal cells and tissues. The original, and probably the most important, function of fats is in the structure of the cell membrane, also called the phospholipid bilayer. The 'lipid' part of the name refers to a type of fat. What that means is that every cell of every living animal has to have fat in order to make its body cells. After that, fat serves many other functions, such as storage of energy.
The rate is way higher in water, because of its fluidity.
The major driving force for the formation of a lipid bilayer is hydrophobic forces on the phospholipid fatty acid carbon chains. Once formed the membrane is further stabilized by hydrogen bonds, electrostatic attractions, and Van Der Waals contacts.
The population increases too.
no, it increases it
It depends on which lipid bilayer you're talking about. There is the phospholipid bilayer that surrounds eukaryotic cells, cholesterol phospholipid bilayers, protein lipid bilayers, phase transition lipid bilayer, lipid bilayer membrane...
The framework of the cell membrane is formed by the lipid bilayer. The lipid bilayer is composed of two layers of fat cells organized in two sheets. This is what provides the barrier that makes the boundaries of the cell.
60%phospholipids and 30% proteins and10% carbohydrates
A double phospholipid bilayer surrounds the nucleus.
Integral proteins are able to stay in the phospholipid bilayer because of the way they fold. Proteins have both hydrophic and hydrophilic regions that correspond to the regions of the phospholipid bilayer.
two layers of phospholipids form foundation of biological cell membranes.
The phospholipid bilayer that surrounds and maintains the integrity of the cell is called a plasma membrane.
The Phospholipid Bilayer is made up of phospholipids. These phospholipids have a hydrophillic head, and a hydrophobic tail. They are structured so that the hydrophillic head interacts with water, and the hydrophobic tails stays away from water, but mixes with fat. This makes the phospholipids form the phospholipid bilayer. The Phospholipid Bilayer has intrinsic proteins and extrinsic proteins attached, which may have glycoproteins attached to them. Glycolipids may also be attached to the hydrophillic heads of the phospholipid. Cholestrol is also part of the phospholipid bilayer, which adds strengh to the structure.

The basic structure of cell membranes is a phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipids have a phosphate group (the head) and a lipid tail.
