the cell membrane is made of two layers of phospholipids
hydrophilic part of the phospholipid
hydrophobic part of the phospholipid
makes up the cell membrane; has a glycerol head (hydrophilic) and 2fatty acid tails (hydrophobic)
regulates what enters and leaves the cell and separates the internal environment of the cell from the external environment
a. cell membrane 1 - 5 of 5 (plasma membrane)
b. fatty tails
c. glycerol head
d. bilayer
e. phospholipid

Explanation:

1. The cell - membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipids have a glycerol head (hydrophilic) and fatty - acid tails (hydrophobic).
2. The hydrophilic part of the phospholipid is the glycerol head.
3. The hydrophobic part is the fatty tails.
4. Phospholipids make up the cell membrane with their characteristic structure.
5. The cell membrane (plasma membrane) regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell and separates the internal and external cell environments.

Answer:

1. D. Bilayer
2. C. Glycerol Head
3. B. Fatty Tails
4. E. Phospholipid
5. A. Cell membrane (plasma membrane)
