Answer:

B. two layers of glycerophospholipid molecules have their nonpolar sections oriented to the inside of the membrane.

Explanation:

Fluid - mosaic model -

The model given by Garth L. Nicolson and S.J. Singer helps to determine the correct composition of the cell membrane .

According to this model , it gives the composition or the structure of the cell membrane or the plasma membrane as a mosaic of components , that are , carbohydrates , proteins , cholesterol , and phospholipids .

The basic framework of this layer , is the molecules of glycerophospholipid , which are dipolar in nature , i.e. polar and nonpolar ends , and hence , are arranged in a manner , to form two layers , where the non polar ends are towards the center and polar are facing outside .
