Cell Membrane: Outer boundary of cells composed of two layers that allows some molecules to leave and enter. The main function is to maintain homeostasis. Homeostasis: The state of steady (balance or equilibrium) internal, physical, and chemical conditions maintained by living organisms. Phospholipid: A double layer that is an effective barrier for most molecules having a hydrophobic and hydrophilic region. Hydrophilic: The polar heads that are water loving and attract water to edges of the membrane. Hydrophobic: The nonpolar fatty acid tails that are water fearing found in the center of the membrane away from water. Biomolecule: Four different types of organic molecules that are essential to life: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids. Semi-permeable: Allows only certain substances to enter and exit the cell in order to maintain homeostasis.
