It's protein
The cell wall or membrane keeps it separate from the environment.
No, phospholipids are the main component of the cell membrane, not fat. Phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails, which help form the structure of the cell membrane. Fat (or lipids) can also be found in the cell membrane, but they are not the main component.
The outermost living part of a cell is the cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what comes into the cell and what goes out of the cell. It is composed of a double layer of phospholipids and proteins.
The major component of the cell membrane is phospholipids. They form a lipid bilayer that acts as a barrier to control the passage of molecules in and out of the cell. Proteins embedded in this lipid bilayer also play key roles in cell membrane function.
Transmembrane Proteins
Phospholipids are the major component of cell membranes, but there are proteins, glycoproteins and cholesterol also in the membrane.
The cell wall or membrane keeps it separate from the environment.
The Phoshpholipid are the predominant lipids of cell membrane. They can act as anchors to cell proteins. Phospholipids can also exist out of cell membrane.
