It has viscous bilayer of lipid with protein

molecules occurring on inner and outer sides of lipid bilayer. (Phospholipid bilayer)

Q20: Who proposed fluidmosaic model of cell or plasma membrane? Answer: Singer and Nicholsan (1972)

Note: The fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.

Q21: Is plasma membrane permeable or selectively permeable?
