How do cells use membrane proteins?
extracellular signaling is one example
What component of a phospholipid membrane helps the cell interact with its polar watery environment?
Membrane proteins.
Are peripheral proteins the same as lipid anchored proteins?
no, lipid-anchor membrane protein are found within the lipid-bilyer and are covalently bonded, but paripheral membrane proteins and found on the out side of the membrane , either on the extracellular or the cytoplasm side ,and they bonded my hydrogen bond.
What process of active transport is the reverse of endocytosis?
Osmosis, diffusion, and facilitated diffusion are all opposites of active transport.
What are membrane proteins involved in?
The plasma membrane separates the interior of cells from the outside environment. The function of this membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. The membrane proteins provide many functions that is vital for survival of the organism. These proteins may act as a membrane receptor and relay signals between the cells internal and external environments. Also transporting proteins by moving molecules and ions across the membrane.

What are cells often bound to the extracellular matrix by?
The cells are often bound to the extracellular matrix by proteins in the plasma membrane. The extracellular matrix is the structural support of tissue.

What happens to a cell during the exocytosis?
It reorganizes its cytoskeleton to reposition its secretory vesicles at the plasma membrane. The vesicles then fuse to the plasma membrane using a complex interaction between proteins of the vesicle membrane and proteins of the cell membrane, and a realignment of the lipids of the membranes. This creates a fusion pore, which rapidly expands to expose the vesicle contents to the extracellular milieu. This releases the vesicle contents into the extracellular space.

What is exoxytosis?
exoxytosis - may not be a real word. it could not be found on Dictionary.com so it was found on wiki.Exocytosis (ek-soh-sy-TOH-sis; from Greek ἔξω "out" and English cyto- "cell" from Gk. κύτος "receptacle") is the durable process by which a cell directs the contents of secretory vesicles out of the cell membrane. These membrane-bound vesicles contain soluble proteins to be secreted to the extracellular environment, as well as membrane proteins and lipids that are sent to become components of the cell membrane.
What is the function of extracellular?
Extracellular enzymes convert substrate into product in bacteria's growing media, the product of catalyzed reaction is then being transported into bacteria's cell throw membrane transporter proteins, and used as a energy source.
What process of active transport is the reverse of endocytosis?
Osmosis, diffusion, and facilitated diffusion are all opposites of active transport.
Functions of proteins embedded in the membrane?
There are two types of proteins that are embedded in phospholipid membranes, extrinsic and intrinsic. Extrinsic proteins are only partially embedded in the membrane. They aid the structural stability of the membrane and when in conjunction with glycolipids can be involved in cell recognition. Intrinsic proteins pass all the way through a membrane. Some of them may be channel proteins which act as passages through the membrane for some molecules and ions.
