A schematic cross-section shows an amphipathic phospholipid bilayer bending inward to form a membrane invagination suggestive of vesicle budding during endocytosis. Hydrophilic headgroups (gray) line the surfaces, while hydrophobic acyl chains (yellow) pair in the bilayer core. In biological hierarchy, phospholipid molecules constitute a cellular membrane that generates vesicular structures within a cell. In cell biology, biochemistry, and membrane biophysics, this structure provides selective permeability, compartmentalization, and enables intracellular trafficking through membrane curvature and vesicle formation.
