  • question_answer
                    In fluid mosaic model of plasma membrane:                                                                                      

    A)                 upper layer is non-polar and hydrophihc              

    B)                 polar layer is hydrophobic

    C)                 phospholipids form- a bimolecular layer middle part

    D)                 proteins form a middle layer

    Correct Answer: C
