Plasma membrane is the common outer covering of all the cell and composed of a bilayer of phospholipids with the phosphate groups on the surface and lipids embedded inside the membrane not exposed to the surface. Also, several proteins are interspersed in the membrane like a mosaic. Integral membrane proteins traverse the entire width of the membrane while surface proteins are present only on the surface.
