    Cell membranes are structures of contradictions. These oily films are hundreds of times thinner than a strand of spider silk, yet strong enough to protect the delicate contents of life: the cell’s watery cytoplasm, genetic material, organelles, and all the molecules it needs to survive. How does the membrane work, and where does that strength come from? Nazzy Pakpour investigates.
    Lesson by Nazzy Pakpour, directed by Zedem Media.

    Engaging and at a good level for high school to intro college, but has a few issues: 1) the model implies that the fatty acid tails of the phospholipids are covalently bonded to each other across the membrane interior (nope); 2) the narrator talks about cells communicating through sharing "chemicals and proteins" - chemicals is a generic word, and may confuse the viewer about proteins (and water, phospholipids, Na+, etc.) being chemicals; 3) the model shows three different solutes going through the same transmembrane protein in the same direction. Channel and carrier proteins are very specific as to which solutes they allow across the membrane (most commonly, only one per type of carrier or channel), and to my knowledge only two-different-solutes cotransporters (same direction) have been found to date. Just 'cuz I teach this stuff.

    Of course, the illustrator may have intended some other, less well-known molecule that just happens to look like water.
