PART 3: What's in a membrane?
1. Draw a small portion of a plasma membrane. Show and label the following components: cytoplasm,
extracellular space, an individual phospholipid molecule, hydrophilic and hydrophobic portions of the
membrane, outer leaflet, and inner leaflet.
In 1925, before the structure of the membrane could be directly visualized, scientists performed a key
mont that helped understand it. They extracted plasma membrane lipids from a known number of
