Genetic Pattern for Schizophrenia Found. July 1, 2009 -- A vast number of common gene variants come together in a perfect storm to increase risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, new studies reveal. But scientists now realize that most inherited disease factors aren't single genes, but combinations of different genes.
Phospholipids make up the basic structure of a cell membrane. A single phospholipid molecule has two different ends: a head and a tail. The head end contains a phosphate group and is hydrophilic.This means that it likes or is attracted to water molecules.hospholipids make up the basic structure of a cell membrane.

PHOSPHOLIPIDS are like lipids but have a phosphate group in place of one of the fatty acid chains, making the molecule hydrophilic. They are components of cell membranes. STEROIDS are made of four interconnected rings of carbon atoms. They can pass through the hydrophobic molecules that make up cell membranes.
