The lipid components of cellular membranes often include:

Lipid layer of the cellular membrane is a lipid bilayer and is a phospholipid structure. These lipids include glycolipids, phospholipids, fatty acids, phosphoglycerides, sphingolipids, and cholesterol. The phospholipid had a phosphate head group and two fatty acid tails. They are amphiphilic in nature.

The lipid components of cellular membranes often include phospholipids and cholesterol. Phospholipids is made up of glycerol, fatty acids, phosphate and organic derivatives such phospho inositol and choline. Cholesterol is the component of the membrane lipid which determine the fluidity of the memebrane; it also participates in membrane singalling system.
