1.
the plasmamembrane as protein icebergs in a sea of lipids. The model describes a central, continuous bilayer of lipid molecules that forms the structural framework of the plasmamembrane with their spherical, polar heads towards outer surface.

2.
The two non-polar tails of each molecule point inwards facing each other. In this way, the membrane forms a water resistant barrier, through which only lipid soluble substances can pass.
