Study Notes

Biological Membranes

The Fluid Mosaic Model is a descriptive model for the structure and function of biological membranes, where the phospholipid bilayer is semi-fluid and has embedded proteins.
Biological membranes are primarily composed of phospholipids, proteins, and cholesterol.

Membrane Transport

Membrane transport is the movement of molecules across the cell membrane, which is essential for cellular functions such as nutrient uptake, waste removal, and cell signaling.
There are two main types of membrane transport: passive transport (diffusion, osmosis) and active transport (carrier proteins, pumps).
