All (mostly) membranes of the cell including those of organelles are made up of lipids, proteins and polysaccharides (like cholesterol). The lipids and proteins are called glycolipids and glycoproteins.

The plasma membrane is made chemically of a molecule that has both?

The plasma membrane is made up of a molecule called phospholipid. Phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails, which arrange themselves to form a lipid bilayer that makes up the membrane. This structure allows the membrane to regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell.


Another name for plasma membrane?
