According to the Fluid Mosaic Model, a biological membrane is a two-dimensional fluid of
oriented proteins and lipids. The lipid bilayer is the basic structure of all cell and organelle
membranes. Cell membranes are dynamic, fluid structures, and most of their molecules are
able to move in the plane of the membrane. Fluidity is the quality of ease of movement and
represents the reciprocal value of membrane viscosity. Fluid properties of biological
membranes are essential for numerous cell functions. Even slight changes in membrane …
