Cellular nutrients come in many forms, including sugars and fats. In order to provide a cell with energy, these molecules have to pass across the cell membrane, which functions as a barrier â but not an impassable one.
The electron microscopic studies reveal that the cell membranes are 75-100 Ao (7.5-10.0 nm) in thickness. The cell membranes are primarily composed of lipids (about 40%) & proteins (about 60%). Also have carbohydrates (1-10%)- present as glycolipids and glycoproteins. A cell membrane consists of 3 layers; a lipid bilayer coated on either side with a layer of protein.
