What is used to store energy and make cell membranes and hormones?
Lipids, or fat.
Does biological molecules proteins and lipids have cell membranes?
Proteins and lipids don't have cell membranes but are the molecules that make up the bulk of what a cell membrane is.
Do most animal cell membranes have proteins that pump sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell?
Most animal cell membranes have proteins that pump ______ ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell
Which molecules help control movement of substances through cell membranes?
proteins help control movement of substances through cell membranes.
What kinds of proteins can be found in cell membranes?
There are two kinds of proteins in a cell membrane: peripheral PROTEINS OR trans membrane proteins. Cell membranes are able to perform various functions only because of different membrane protein functions. Most of the membrane proteins have alpha helix structure.
Are protein part of cell membranes and store energy?
no proteins do not store energy they help active transport
What Organic compound that is used to store energy and forms important parts of biological membranes?
Cell membranes are phospholipids not proteins. Proteins are not used as energy stores by living things. Energy stores are sugars and fats.

Lipids, or fat.
Does biological molecules proteins and lipids have cell membranes?
Proteins and lipids don't have cell membranes but are the molecules that make up the bulk of what a cell membrane is.
Why Proteins do not pass through cell membranes?
Hydrophilic proteins.
Do most animal cell membranes have proteins that pump sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell?
Most animal cell membranes have proteins that pump ______ ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell
What Flattened membranes that package proteins?
this is a cell
Which molecules help control movement of substances through cell membranes?
proteins help control movement of substances through cell membranes.
What is used to insulate the body and is found in cell membranes?
Lipids store energy, form the membranes around our cells, and insulate our body.
What forms parts of cell membranes and many of the cell organelle's?
The answer is proteins.
What forms parts of cell membranes and many of the cell and organelles?
The answer is proteins.
What is the cell membranes channels and pumps made of?
Proteins.
