Question
Chapter 5.2, Problem 6AYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The similarities and differences between eukaryotic and bacterial cytoplasmic membranes.
Concept introduction:
Cytoplasmic membrane is the dual membrane system in which proteins are embedded. Cytoplasmic membrane is also known as plasma membrane. The important basic function of cytoplasmic membrane is to guard the cell against the external surroundings. This membrane also controls the regulation of molecules in and out of the cell.

- A main function of the cell membrane is to be very selective as to what is able to cross through, a condition known as a barrier. In the fluid mosaic membrane model, lipids are organized in a arrangement, such that portions of the lipids are exposed to either the interior or exterior of the cell, while the lipid portions are sandwiched in the middle of the membrane. As part of the cell membrane, a main function of proteins is to provide while a main function of proteins is to provide Other cell membrane molecules include which function to provide fluidity to rigid membranes and rigidity to fluid membranes; and surface carbohydrates, which function to provide .
