Does water surround cells?
No, they are surrounded by cell membrane aka plasma membrane. This is for ALL cells.
What plasma membrane extensions create the most surface area for the cell?
Microvilli.
What structures surround the cell to protect outside environment?
The plasma membrane.
What two structures surround cells?
The two structures that surround the prokaryotic cell are the cell membrane or plasma membrane and the cytoskeleton. All prokaryotic cells contain these.
How does nutrients enter a cell?
The plasma membrane.
The cell or plasma membrane has which macromolecule in it?
The two macromolecules are protein, carbs, and lipids.
Is the plasma membrane the thin covering that surround cells?
Yes
What are slender extensions of the plasma membrane that increase its surface area?
Microvilli

The membrane surround and protect the cell?
Its called the cell membrane or the plasma membrane.
What occurs when the plasma membrane surround large substance inside the cell and moves it outside the cell?
exocytosis

The plasma 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.
What slender extensions of the plasma membrane that increase its surface area?
Microvilli:In some cells the membrane is thrown into minute fingerlike projections or folds called microvilli which greatly increase the surface area of the cell available for absorption or passage of materials and for the binding of signaling molecules.
