NEED HELP FAST!Please write 2 pargragh for each question!

Describe the fluid mosaic model of the plasma membrane and explain how membranes manage to stay fluid with temperature changes. Be sure to explain what the plasma membrane is composed of. How are the sides of a membrane different?

What are membrane proteins and how many types are there? What are their functions?

Define osmosis, diffusion and active transport. Compare and contrast the three. Explain the subtle differences between them. What are the forms of bulk transport in cells?

Starting from the nucleus, work your way all the way out to the ECM and explain each cell organelle IN DETAIL, with labeled diagrams, and their functions. Be sure to include the cytoskeleton and be sure to differentiate between plant and animal cells. (WORTH DOUBLE POINTS)
