Yes
Cell membranes are primarily composed of a bilayer of phospholipids, where hydrophilic (water-attracting) heads face outward towards the aqueous environment, while hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails point inward, away from water. Proteins are interspersed throughout this lipid bilayer, serving various functions such as transport, signaling, and structural support. These proteins can be integral, spanning the membrane, or peripheral, attached to the surface. This organization creates a dynamic and fluid environment that is essential for cellular function.
yes, transmembrane proteins have both polar and non-polar regions. This is because these proteins are dispersed through the membrane almost like pieces of stones. So, to be inside the hydrophobic region of the phospholipid bi-layer AND also outside of it in the water or aqueous solution they transmembrane protein needs to be amphipathic.
Plasma membrane in made up of phospholipid bilayer and proteins. It has a hydrophobic tail facin each other on the bilayer, and polar head that face outside to the polar environment. Proteins such as integral and peripheral proteins are presenting on the membarane.
Pluto is nearest to its moon, Charon, which is about half the size of Pluto. The two bodies are tidally locked, meaning they always show the same face towards each other as they orbit.
The Cis face of the Golgi apparatus functions as the receiving side, where newly synthesized proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) enter the Golgi. It is involved in the initial processing and sorting of these molecules before they move to the trans face for further modification and distribution. The Cis face plays a crucial role in ensuring that proteins are properly folded and tagged for their final destinations within or outside the cell.
Always towards Mecca

Proteins on the outer side of the plasma membrane are usually Glycoproteins and play a variety of roles in cells, one of the most common proteins are receptors. Receptor proteins provide a region for substances such as hormones to bind to, allowing "chemical messsages" to be passed between cells.
Because one face is always pointed towards the Earth.
Windows and solar panels designed to catch the sun should always face towards the equator. In the US this means they should face south.

Only 1. Which is why the same face of the moon is always towards the earth.
This is due to a phenomenon called synchronous rotation, where the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate it orbits the Earth. This causes one side of the moon to always face towards the Earth.

It is believed that images and figures of elephants should face towards the door of the room they are in to encourage good fortune. They should also have their trunks turned upward.
Cis face is where a vesicle forms ER and attaches Transface: where packaged proteins are released from
You face/choose the shortest distance between you and the Kabah.
