Plasma membrane is Prokaryotes has Lipid Bilayer Structure ( except in Archebacteria where both the lipid bilayer are fused to form lipid monolayer ) , the fluidity of membrane is regulated by Hopanoids
In eukaryotes , the cell membrane is again Lipid Bilayer , but here the fluidity of membrane is regulated by Sterols ( Cholesterol )
