Effect of temperature on lipids in cell membrane?

the temperature effects the fluidity of the membrane. as the temperature decreases the fluid in the membrane will eventually become solid, this depends on the fatty acid present in the cell. however, a cell can alter the lipid composition of its membrane to some extent as an adjustment to changing temperature as a way of adoption to the colder weather.


Are the cell walls affected by temperature in the same way that the plasma membrane is?

Cell walls are not as affected by temperature as the plasma membrane because they are rigid and provide structural support to the cell. Changes in temperature affect the fluidity and permeability of the plasma membrane, which can impact the cell's ability to maintain internal homeostasis.


The effect of acid on the cell membrane?

Acid can disrupt the structure of the cell membrane by breaking down phospholipids and proteins, leading to increased permeability and potential cell damage. The disruption of the cell membrane can result in leakage of cellular contents and loss of cell function, ultimately causing cell death.


What is the purpose of having a membrane in a cell?

Cell membrane do a lot of function.protection of cell.food ingestion and excretion from cell.a medium between cell and outer environment.having receptors where few drug bind to show effect.


What is the effect of high temperature on purple cabbage membrane?

The cabbage membrane gets darker as the temperature begins to increase. 65 degrees Celsius and above may cause the membrane proteins to be destroyed, hence the color change.


What Controls what moves in and out of the cell?

Cell membrane


Another name for plasma membrane?

A cell membrane is also known as a plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane. The cell membrane separates the interior of a cell from its outside environment. The main function of a cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings.


Why tonicity is important?

because it refers to the effect of the solutions osmotic pressure has on water movement across the cell membrane of cells with in the solution. because it refers to the effect of the solutions osmotic pressure has on water movement across the cell membrane of cells with in the solution.


What is the thin flexible membrane around all cells?

the cell membrane is as flexible barrier outside of the cell.


Would both plant and animal cells have the same effect if the cell membrane burst?

yes it would because........ nothing is different about the function and structure of the cell membrane so in both cells the conditions of the cell membrane exploding will still be the same for both cell types (it will leak by therefore killing it)


The effect of a neurotransmitter on the postsynaptic cell occurs when the neurotransmitter?

binds to specific receptors on the postsynaptic cell membrane, leading to changes in the cell's membrane potential. This can either excite or inhibit the postsynaptic neuron, influencing the likelihood of an action potential being generated. Ultimately, the effect of the neurotransmitter can influence the communication between neurons in the nervous system.


Which contains the other cell membrane or phospholipid?

the cell membrane
