Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer, where the polar (hydrophilic) heads face outward and the non-polar (hydrophobic) tails face inward. Disrupting the organization of these polar and non-polar regions would break up the molecules that compose the cell membrane, as it would interfere with the membrane's integrity and structure.
