Draw the structure of a cell membrane (6 marks).

I would draw a diagram showing the structure of a cell membrane and explain each of the parts:The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer which is composed of a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail. There are many of these phospholipid bilayers that are joined together with the hydrophilic head touching one another. In between these structures are peripheral and integral proteins. There are also glycoproteins that additionally consist of an oligosaccharide chain.
