Where are phospholipids primarily found in the body?
The main component of cell membranes are made up of phospholipids. In fact, another name for the cell membrane is the phospholipid bilayer.
Lipid-soluble materials enter and exit the cell via?
Phospholipids permit lipid-soluble materials to easily enter or leave the cell by diffusion through the cell membrane. Phospholipids form a bilayer or double layer which makes up most of the membrane.
What are the three types of lipids found in foods?
triglycerides, phospholipids, and sterols
What are the two distinct faces of the phospholipids that make up the surface membrane of a cell?
A hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail
