Question For All :D

[chez07]

Is a fluid mosaic refer to either the cell wall or cell membrane?

[mith]

Well, what does fluid mosaic mean?

[chez07]

its a structure either in the cell wall or cell membrane but i dunno which
😯

[MrMistery]

it is not a structure. It is a model to explain the dynamics of one of them. A Google search will quickly find the answer for you

[MrMistery]

and see our rules about naming topics please..

[mith]

well ever notice walls are usually rigid?

[MrMistery]

good point dave 🙂

[sara sabir]

i have read the fluid mosaic model under plasma membrane
so i wud say its 4 membranes….

quote MrMistery:

and see our rules about naming topics please..

Well Im New So Sorry

[MrMistery]

i saw you were new. that is why i told you to go read the rules instead of assuming you had read them already.

[bass_lasso9]

mosaic fluid for plasma membrane structure..
it’s like a bricks structure build ur wall..
in plasma membrane it refers to the complex structure of protein and lipid that compound membrane..

there r more in literatures.. go check it..

[sara sabir]

protein is not in continous sheath but in the form of globules and is floating in the ocean of lipids
dat iz to say dat the protein is arranged in mosaic manner

[mith]

float is the wrong word to use…they’re attached by electrostatic interactions not by buoyancy.
