  1. The latest model for plasma membrane is
    1. lamellar model
    2. unit membrane model
    3. fluid mosaic model
    4. molecular lipid model
Correct Option: C

Fluid mosaic model is the most recent model of a biomembrane proposed by Singer and Nicolson (1972, 74). According to this model, the membrane does not have a uniform deposition of lipids which are present as highly viscous fluid matrix of two layers of phospholipid molecules and proteins arranged in a symetrical pattern.
