What is the of a cell membrane in an animal cells?
if you are talking about function, it is to control what get in and out of a cell and to give the cell a shape
What is the function of a cell mebrane?
what the cell membrane does is give the cell it's shape and prevents thing from come in into it and out
What molecules in membrane give them their specific function describe activities of one of these molecules?
Direct activities of the cell give the function of the cell membrane. Globular proteins create narrow passageways or channels. The nucleus directs the cell's functions.
What life function does cell membrane do?
regulation execration transport I'm too lazy to give detail -_-
What role do membranes play in prokaryotic cells in eukaryotic cells?
In Prokaryotic cells, membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell, they also give the cell a shape and keep organells together.
Do proteins at the inner surface of the plasma membrane attach to the membrane to the cells support the structure?
yes
How do properties of lipids help explain the structure of the cell membrane?
Lipids do give cells membranes a flexible structure that forms a strong barrier between the cell and the cell surroundings. Hence, the lipid surrounds the structure which then forms the shape of the cell.
Major functions of cell membrane proteins?
Examples of proteins in the cell membrane are pore/channel proteins, carriers, glycoproteins. Therefore protein assist in transport of substances across cell membrane. Cell recognition. Involved in mechanical strength and attachment of the cell membrane ( protein substances surround the cell membrane that allows it to attach to other cells)
Does cholesterol serves no function in the cell?
It functions by serving its purpose of being in the plasma membrane. Which is to give the membrane more fluidity in normal and low temperatures and to prevent the membrane from being too fluid in high temperatures in respect to the membrane.
Do all cells have a cell membrane?
All cells need a membrane. The membrane helps with keeping in all the fluids and organelles plus it takes in and sends out important things. Plant cells and bacteria have cell walls which give an extra layer of protection.
How are the function of chloroplasts and mitochondria similar?
Chloroplast in a plant cell performs photosynthesis which give the cell energy and food. Mitochondria is the power house of the cell and creates energy too.
What is the membrane of a cell?
The Cell membrane encompasses All Cells. It protects the Cell and controls what substances go in and out of It. So basically, It keeps all of the harmful products out of the Cell, and It lets good products come into the Cell. Some Cells, such as plant Cells or fungi, have a Cell wall, which is different from a Cell membrane. Cell walls are on the outside of some Cells. They are a thick layer of nonliving material made of cellulose. They protect and support the Cell, and give Cells a rigid, box-like shape. For animal Cells, since they don't have a Cell wall, the Cell membrane is the outer boundary that seperates the inside of the Cell from the environment around them. But for plant Cells, fungi, bacteria Cells, and other Cells with a Cell wall, the Cell membrane surrounds the Cell, but the Cell wall surrounds the Cell with the Cell membrane around it.
