    The document summarizes key aspects of cell membranes including their composition, structure, and functions. Specifically: 1) Cell membranes are composed of lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates including phospholipids, integral proteins, glycolipids, and cholesterol. 2) The fluid mosaic model describes cell membranes as a fluid bilayer with integral and peripheral proteins embedded and moving within it. 3) Cell membranes play important roles in cell recognition, transport, and defining the boundaries of cells and their internal structures.
