Figure 2. A detailed, annotated diagram illustrates the fluid mosaic model of the eukaryotic cell membrane, highlighting the phospholipid bilayer, various integral and peripheral proteins, cholesterol, and associated glycoproteins and glycolipids. The image displays the asymmetric distribution of these components, which facilitates specific membrane functions like transport and cell recognition.
