What can be found in the cell membrane?
The principal components of the plasma membrane are lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol), proteins, and carbohydrate groups that are attached to some of the lipids and proteins. A phospholipid is a lipid made of glycerol, two fatty acid tails, and a phosphate-linked head group.
What kind of candy to use in cell model?
Cell Membrane – Bubble Tape was our favorite choice for the Cell Membrane Mitochondrion – A green ‘orange slice’ candy was our top pick for Mitochondrion This was a fun little project that I truly enjoyed working on with my son. He also had to write details about each of the parts that he chose to include.
What does pink icing in a cell mean?
