Explanation:

The cell membrane is composed mainly of phospholipids, which consist of fatty acids and alcohol. The phospholipids in the plasma membrane are arranged in two layers, called a phospholipid bilayer.Each phospholipid molecule has a head and two tails. The head “loves” water (hydrophilic) and the tails “fear” water (hydrophobic). The water-fearing tails are on the interior of the membrane, whereas the water-loving heads point outwards, toward either the cytoplasm or the fluid that surrounds the cell.

It also contains proteins and carbohydrates.52% of protein and 40% of lipids.(but varies from different types of cell types).
