A schematic cross-section shows a phospholipid bilayer with hydrophilic head groups (gray) and hydrophobic fatty acid (FA) tails (yellow) arranged tail-to-tail. In the biological hierarchy, individual phospholipids (molecules) assemble into a membrane, which forms the boundary of cells and organelles. In cell biology and biochemistry, this membrane enables selective permeability, signal transduction, and compartmentalization. The illustrated entity is a biological membrane (molecular assembly), lacking embedded proteins or carbohydrates.
