What organelle has a double layer of phospholipids that is selectively permeable?

Mitochondria is double membraned!It is known as power house of cell it contain enzymes for production of energy by respiration.


How do phospholipids contribute to the specific functions of the plasma membrane?

Phospholipids in the plasma membrane help create a barrier that controls what enters and exits the cell. They also play a role in cell signaling and maintaining the membrane's structure and flexibility.


What cell structures are made primarily from phospholipids?

cell membrane


How are phospholipids arranged in a plasma membrane and what is their role in maintaining the structure and function of the membrane?

Phospholipids in a plasma membrane are arranged in a bilayer, with the hydrophilic heads facing outward and the hydrophobic tails facing inward. This arrangement helps maintain the structure of the membrane and allows it to be selectively permeable, regulating the passage of substances in and out of the cell. The phospholipids also play a role in cell signaling and maintaining the integrity of the membrane.
