Fluid Dynamics
Biological membranes are selective barriers that surround and protect cells, composed mainly of lipid bilayers with embedded proteins. These structures play crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis, regulating the movement of substances in and out of cells, and facilitating communication between cells. Their unique properties also relate to various physical phenomena, including surface tension, which affects how these membranes interact with their environment.
