FLUID
FATS MOSAIC MODEL
A scientific concept describing the structure and behaviour of ce
membranes.

Fluid-Mosaic
Describes the structure of the cell membrane as a dynamic
and flexible arrangement, allowing the membane to perform
various functions essential for cell survival, including
interactions with the environment, transport of molecules, ce
signalling, and maintaining cellular integrity.

2. Proteins
Integral (intrinsic) proteins are embedded within the lipid
bilayer and may either span the entire membrane
(transmembrane) or extend partially into the hydrophobic
core. The hydrophobic regions of integral proteins interact
with the fatty acid tails of phospholipids, anchoring them
within the membrane, while their hydrophilic regions are
exposed to the aqueous environments on the extracellular a
intracellular sides.
