Negative mark is given to incorrect answer(s).

	a.	The polar head groups of the bilayer are positively charged.
	b.	Individual lipid molecules in one face (monolayer) of the bilayer cannot diffuse (flip-flop) to the other monolayer and must be catalyzed by a lipid transporter called flippase.
	c.	The bilayer is stabilized by covalent bonds between neighbouring phospholipid molecules.
	d.	Polar, but uncharged, compounds readily diffuse across the bilayer.
	e.	Individual lipid molecules are free to diffuse laterally on the surface of the bilayer.
