Question
the primary lipids found in the plasma membrane are (choose two):
phospholipids
neutral lipids
fat soluble vitamins
cholesterol
The plasma membrane is mainly composed of phospholipids which form a bilayer. Cholesterol is also an important lipid component in the plasma membrane as it helps in maintaining membrane fluidity. Neutral lipids are mainly for energy storage (like in adipose tissue) and not a primary component of the plasma membrane. Fat - soluble vitamins are not primary lipids of the plasma membrane.
