Which of the following occur as the plasma membrane is formed?
Choose one or more:
A. The polar heads of the phospholipids orient themselves toward the aqueous extracellular and intracellular environments, and the nonpolar tails orient themselves toward each other, away from water, forming a phospholipid bilayer.
B. The nonpolar heads of the phospholipids orient themselves toward the aqueous extracellular and intracellular environments, and the polar tails orient themselves toward each other, away from water, forming a phospholipid bilayer.
C. The hydrophobic heads of the phospholipids orient themselves toward the extracellular and intracellular environments, and the hydrophilic tails of the phospholipids orient themselves toward each other, forming a phospholipid bilayer.
D. The hydrophilic heads of the phospholipids orient themselves toward the extracellular and intracellular environments, and the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipids orient themselves toward each other, forming a phospholipid bilayer.
E. The phospholipid bilayer forms a spherical structure called a liposome.
