What molecule makes up the bulk of a cell's membrane?
Lipid molecules
What kind of lipid makes up the bilayer that forms cell membranes?
Phospholipids, where one end is hydrophobic and the other is hydrophilic.
What molecules form the double layer of cell membranes?
A double layer of phospholipids makes up most of your cell membranes
Which type of lipid is most important in cell membranes?
Cholesterol. It maintains the structure integrity of the membranes
What is the double layered sheet that makes up nearly all cell membranes called?
60%phospholipids and 30% proteins and10% carbohydrates

A double layer of phospholipids makes up most of your cell membranes
What type of chemical molecule makes up the bilayer?
Of cell membranes? Usually lipids and proteins.
What molecule makes up cell membranes?
Cell membranes are mainly composed of phospholipids. A phospholipid is a phosphate group with a fatty acid tail. Proteins are also present in cell membranes.

Cholesterol. It maintains the structure integrity of the membranes

60%phospholipids and 30% proteins and10% carbohydrates
Does cells have plasma membranes?
I assume that by "Cell Membrane," you mean a lipid bi-layer that makes the cell membrane of micro-organisms. If that is what you mean, the iPhone does not have a cell membrane. There are not any lipid bi-layers anywhere in or around the iPhone.
What makes a cell membranes waterproof?
While water does pass through the membrane if it has enough momentum, the apolar part of the lipid bilayer generally is what makes the membrane more or less waterproof.
What type of molecule has a carboxyl head and makes up cell membranes?
Glycerol and fatty acids both have carboxyl heads, but i am not sure about their purpose yet.
What is lipid synthesis?
Lipid synthesis is a process that makes and dissolves lipids. It consists of 2 phases fatty synthesis and lipid assembly.
