Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lipids, specifically phospholipids, make up the primary water-insoluble components of cell membranes. This includes the phospholipid bilayer, which forms the barrier between the cell and its environment. Proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates can also be found in cell membranes, but they are not the primary water-insoluble components.
