They can form a lipid bilayer. The lipid bilayer is the barrier that keeps ions, proteins and other molecules where they are needed and prevents them from diffusing into areas where they should not be.
The phospholipids help the cell maintain its internal aqueous environment. (Apex)

phospholipids and cholesterols
Phospholipids are usually found in the cell membrane of a cell (hence the alternate name for a cell membrane being the phospholipid bilayer).
The cell membrane is composed of phospholipids. They form a bilayer for the cell.
Phospholipids are the most abundant molecules in the cell membrane. They have a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tails that arrange themselves in a lipid bilayer to form the basic structure of the membrane.
