5. According to this definition, the packing parameter of a molecule which forms spherical micelles is of the order of 1/3; as the parameter increase towards 1/2, cylindrical micelles are observed; vesicles or flexible bilayers are observed with the parameter 1/2∼1; bilayers are observed with the parameter equal to 1.
