How to Draw the Cell Membrane Like a Pro!

Do you need a little help with drawing the cell membrane? Or, are you unsure about how to label the cell membrane components in a diagram? You're in the right place! In this video, I'll give you some tips for drawing the cell membrane parts, and for recognizing different membrane molecules in a diagram. The focus here is on drawing and IDing, but I'll still drop a few important facts along the way. Watch to learn more about...

00:00 Intro
00:34 Phospholipid structure - heads and tails
01:27 Phospholipid bilayer - how to draw it tail-to-tail
02:40 Bilayer vs double membrane - what's the difference?
03:03 Cholesterol - rings or circles?
04:00 Peripheral proteins - living on the edge
04:28 Integral proteins in the core and transmembrane proteins all the way through
05:28 Glycoproteins, glycolipids and glycocalyx - when you see "glyco," think "carb!"
06:20 Full diagram of the fluid mosaic membrane structures
