- In the fluid mosaic model: plasma membrane proteins orient their hydrophilic sides toward the internal bilayer. phospholipids often flip-flop between the inner and outer layers. the mosaic refers to proteins attached to the underlying cytoskeleton. the fluid refers to the phospholipid bilayer. the mosaic refers to the symmetry of the internal membrane proteins and sterols.arrow_forwardDescribe the following as seen under the compound microscope. Cell membrane Mitochondria Golgi apparatus Endoplasmic reticulum Ribosome Centrosome Nucleus Nuclear membrane Nucleolus Chromatin materialarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements regarding microtubules is FALSE? Microtubules are typically arranged in cells such that thoir plus (+) ends are directed towards the plasma membrane and their minus (-) ends are attached to the centrosomes. Microtubules are composed of 13 protofilaments that are arranged into a hollow cylinder. Microtubules are polar. Microtubule-binding proteins, such as Tau, bind to microtubules to destabilizo thom. Microtubules are inherently unstable and rapidly disassemble with low/ GTIP concentrations.arrow_forward
