The cell membrane is mainly made of phospholipids, proteins, and some cholesterol, arranged like a moving mosaic. The 'fluid mosaic' model is correct because these molecules are not static; they shift and flow, just as my wedding band musicians must adjust their positions around the stubborn tabla player to keep the music seamless. My own life in arranging scores teaches me that any rigid structure would break under the demands of a living performance.
