The classic demonstration that cell plasma membranes are composed of bilayers depends on the following kinds of data:
• The membrane lipids from 4.74 × 109 erythrocytes will form a monolayer of area 0.89 m2 when spread on a water surface.
• The surface of one erythrocyte is approximately 100 μm2in area.
Show that these data can be accounted for only if the erythrocyte membrane is a bilayer.
