Genetic Pattern for Schizophrenia Found. July 1, 2009 -- A vast number of common gene variants come together in a perfect storm to increase risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, new studies reveal. But scientists now realize that most inherited disease factors aren't single genes, but combinations of different genes.
Phospholipids make up the basic structure of a cell membrane. A single phospholipid molecule has two different ends: a head and a tail. The head end contains a phosphate group and is hydrophilic.This means that it likes or is attracted to water molecules.hospholipids make up the basic structure of a cell membrane.

Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules that make up the bilayer of the plasma membrane and keep the membrane fluid. Describe phospholipids and their role in cells. Phospholipids consist of a glycerol molecule, two fatty acids, and a phosphate group that is modified by an alcohol.
