What is the difference between a plasma membrane and a Cell?
There is no difference between plasma and cell membrane.
Does the cell membrane consist of two lipid layers?
The plasma membrane is made of a bilayer lipid membrane (phospholipids) with proteins that are present in a mosaic pattern. The membrane is semi fluid.
How to Describe the purpose of the plasma membrane?
The external, limiting lipid bilayer membrane of cells. A thin membrane around the cytoplasm of a cell. It controls passage of substances in and out of the cell. The plasma membrane allows a steady supply of nutrients to come into the cell also known as homeostasis. The plasma membrane contains proteins that span through the membrane and allow for the passage of proteins. The plasma membrane is located on the outside of animal cells or beneath the cell wall on plant cells.It is called the lipid bilayer because it is composed of two layers of fat cells organized in two sheets.LhadY Chelle p0..
Surrounding each Cell in your body is a what and a what?
That is a bi-lipid Cell plasma membrane coated with a glyco-callyx Cell coat. Plant Cell plasma membranes are coated with a cellulosic Cell wall.
Why is the plasma membrane called the selectively permeable membrane?
Let trans-membrane transport of molecules be either passive, or facilitated, or active: the plasma [bi-lipid layer] membrane has the power to exclude molecules It selects from passage through the Membrane into the Cell's interior.
What is the difference between a plasma membrane and a Cell?
There is no difference between plasma and cell membrane.
What is a holes in plasma membrane through which molecules pass across capillary wall?
The plasma membrane is made up of a lipid bilayer and some proteins. The transmembrane proteins are the structures which are involved in the transport of molecules in or through the cell.
Where in a cell does the production of protein carbohydrate and lipid molecules occur?
Protein= Ribosomes. Carbohydrate= Plasma Membrane Lipid= Lipid Bilayer
What organelle in a cell has 2 lipid layers made up of proteins and carbohydrates and is in both plant and animal cells?
Plasma membrane

Define the structure and function of the cell membrane plasma membrane?
The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer which is actually a phospholipid. Cell membranes are semipermiable and they regulate what enters and leaves the cell.
Which of the following statements about a typical plasma membrane is correct?
The Correct Answer: The sides of the plasma membrane that face the cytoplasm and the outside of the cell have different lipid and protein composition.
All cells are surrounded by a(n)?
A Cell Membrane: The bi-lipid-layer Cell Membrane. Plant Cells include an exterior [cellulosic] Cell Wall while animal Cells include an exterior glyco-callyx [sugar-protein] Cell Coat.
What is the part of the cell that materials pass through?
The membrane
What is the outer boundary of an animal cell called?
The outer boundary of a general animal cell is the cell membrane.
Surrounding each Cell in your body is a what and a what?
That is a bi-lipid Cell plasma membrane coated with a glyco-callyx Cell coat. Plant Cell plasma membranes are coated with a cellulosic Cell wall.
