20. 20.The main problem with the Davson-Danielli model of membrane structure was that it:
did not account for the phospholipid bilayer
phospholipid fluidity was impossible
it placed membrane proteins in a layer on the membrane surface
early electron micrographs clearly did not support this model
nothing is wrong with the model, and it is accepted today by cell biologists 25
