Q

Plasmalemma Components

A
phospholipid bilayer (hydrophilic heads, hydrophobic tails)
glycolipids (outer layer, functions as receptor)
protein (peripheral proteins are attached to membrane, integral proteins are embedded)
cholesterol (stabilize structure, maintains fluidity)

Q

ENDOCYTOSIS

A

1 PINOCYTOSIS entrance via vesicle
2 PHAGOCYTOSIS surrounds particle to eat
