Classifying lipids is really easy. In short, lipids are hydrophobic or “water fearing/hating” biomolecules.

Liposomes and Bilayers are very similar in that they both have fatty acids comprised of a polar head group and a non-polar (hydrop

The lipid bilayer, which consists of two layers of lipids (fatty acids containing a polar head group and non-polar hydrophobic tai

All animal cells have a lipid bilayer membrane that interacts in the environment that it is in. This means that various proteins c

Transport across a membrane is important as without it, our bodies would not be able to function.

Passive mediated transport does not require assistance of other molecules to pass through the membrane.

A plasmalogen is a glycero-phospholipid where the C1 position is an ether linkage and is though to act as a reducing agent to prev
