What property of phospholipids gives the plasma membrane the ability to automatically assemble?

Answer;

-They are polar

Explanation;

-A phospholipid is a lipid that contains a phosphate group and is a major component of cell membranes. A phospholipid consists of a hydrophilic (water-loving) head and hydrophobic (water-fearing) tail. Hydrophilic / hydrophobic layers restrict the passage of many substances.

-When phospholipids are mixed with water, they spontaneously rearrange themselves to form the lowest free-energy configuration. This means that the hydrophobic regions find ways to remove themselves from water, while the hydrophilic regions interact with water.
