How would you differentiate the plasma membrane and the other organelles?

The plasma membrane is the outer covering of a cell that separates it from its environment and regulates the passage of substances in and out. Organelles are structures within the cell that have specific functions, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum. Unlike the plasma membrane, organelles are membrane-bound structures found within the cell.


What cell componants have to match for an organ transplant?

For an organ transplant to be successful, the recipient's human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) must match as closely as possible with those of the donor's cells. In addition to HLAs, blood type compatibility is also crucial for a successful organ transplant.

The organelle common to all types of cells that encloses the cytoplasm and controls cell transport is?

the plasma membrane also known as the phopholipid bilayer or cell membrane. it is only an organelle in the same way that your skin is considered an organ i.e a a controlled barrier to the outside world.


Which organelle and organ are similar?

There are multiple answers to this question; the nucleus can be equated to a sort of cellular brain, while the vacuole is similar to a stomach, flagella are likewise similar to appendages, and the endoplasmic reticulum can be intestines while the plasma membrane can be skin. There are others, yet these are the prime examples found in many cells.


Is a membrane an organ or tissue?

Thin covering that encloses a cell and holds its parts together?

The thin covering that encloses a cell and holds its parts together is called the cell membrane. It acts as a barrier, controlling the movement of substances in and out of the cell, while also maintaining the cell's shape and structure.
