Integral membrane proteins are proteins that span the entire lipid bilayer and stay associated with one side of the bilayer, either the inner or outer side. These proteins have hydrophobic regions that allow them to anchor into the membrane.
Integral membrane proteins span the phospholipid bilayer one or more times. These proteins have transmembrane domains that anchor them within the lipid bilayer, allowing them to interact with both the extracellular and intracellular environments of the cell. Examples include transporters, receptors, and ion channels.
Peripheral proteins are under the phospholipid bilayer, while integral proteins are inscribed in the bilayer.Integral proteins pass entirely through the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane and have domains that go from the outside of the cell to the cytoplasm inside the cell. While peripheral proteins are only on the one side of the lipid bilayer, either the outside of the cell or the cytoplasmic side inside the cell, but not both.
The protein is anchored into the membrane by its nonpolar region, but the protein remains moblie. To explain it more, the middle section of the protein is made of many nonpolar amino acids. This nonpolar coil fits into the nonpolar interior of the lipid bilayer allowing the protein to float in the membrane.
One great strategy to tackle difficulties in membrane protein crystallization is our bicelle-protein crystallization technique. Bicelles are small bilayer disks formed in lipid/amphiphile mixtures, into which membrane proteins can be incorporated. At low temperature, bicelle-forming lipid/amphiphile mixtures are not viscous, but they tend to develop a gel-like consistency at higher temperatures. Thus, with bicelle forming lipid/amphiphile mixtures it is possible to access a variety of lipid bilayer structures simply by varying temperature.
yes it can as its outside edges stick out of the phospholipid bilayer exposing it to the watery environment (polar/hydrophilic) and part of the protein is inside the bilayer along with the phospholipid tails (hydrophobic/nonpolar).

No they stay on one side of the womb all the time.

because the other side is the water
facilitated diffusion is the type of membrane that occurs in protein binds. This is when molecule goes to one side.Edit : fixed the wrong answer
