Phospholipids: types, structure and function

The video explores phospholipids, their structure, types, and crucial roles in cell membranes. Phospholipids have a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tails, forming a lipid bilayer that provides selective permeability. They are essential for cell survival, growth, and various biological processes.

Explain the concept of selective permeability in relation to phospholipids.

What are some functions of phospholipids beyond forming cell membranes?
