Select the correct statement from the following regarding cell membrane.A. `Na^(+) and Ka^(+)` ions move across cell membrane by passive transport.B. Proteinsmake up 60-70% of the cell membraneC. lipids are arranged in a bilayer with polar heads towards the inner partD. fluid mosaic model of cell membrane was proposed by singer and nicholson

Answer» Correct Answer - D
In 1972, singer and nicholson proposed fluid mosaic model for internal structure of plasma membrane.this is most widely accepted model for plasma membrane. According to this model, a membrane consists of continous bilayer of phospholipid molecules in which globular proteins are embedded. the lipids are arranged in a bilayer with polar heads toward outside and non-polar tails towards inside.
