What is another name for phospholpids blayer?
The phospholipid bilayer is also referred to as the cell membrane or plasma membrane.
What is the basic structure of the plasma 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.
What is the double layered sheet that makes up nearly all cell membranes called?
60%phospholipids and 30% proteins and10% carbohydrates
Why do integral proteins stay in place in the phospholipid bilayer?
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.
What is the name of the fluid phospholipid bilayer which determines what materials enter and exit the cell?
That is the name. Unless you have another name in mind. Sometimes it is called the fluid mosaic model or the cell membrane.
What is another name for the phospholipid bilayer?
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...

Is there a phospholipid bilayer membrane surrounding the nucleus?
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.
What are two layers of phospholipid?
two layers of phospholipids form foundation of biological cell membranes.
What is the name of the fluid phospholipid bilayer which determines what materials enter and exit the cell?
That is the name. Unless you have another name in mind. Sometimes it is called the fluid mosaic model or the cell membrane.
What is the phospholipid bilayer that surrounds and maintains integrity of a cell called?
The phospholipid bilayer that surrounds and maintains the integrity of the cell is called a plasma membrane.
What are the specialized parts of a phospholipid bilayer?
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.
