Question

Fluid mosaic model in class 11​

Answer 1

Answer:

The fluid mosaic model was proposed by S.J. Singer and Garth L. Nicolson. This model explains the structure of the plasma membrane of animal cells as a mosaic of components such as phospholipids, proteins, cholesterol, and carbohydrates. These components give a fluid character to the membranes.

Each phospholipid has a hydrophilic head pointing outside and a hydrophobic tail forming the inside of the bilayer.

Cholesterol and proteins are embedded in the bilayer that gives the membrane a mosaic look. Each component has a specific function to perform.
