The plasma membrane of a human cell does what?
acts as a gatekeeper
What is the outer layer of a cell that acts as a gatekeeper to a cell?
Cell Membrane
Do a plasma membrane maintain cell shape?
Yes, as the plasma membrane acts as a base for the cytoskeleton of the cell. (Which helps to maintain the shape of the cell.)
How does nutrients enter a cell?
The plasma membrane.
What on the outside of the plasma membrane acts as signals or markers to help cells recognize on another?
carbohydrates
What is the bacterial structure that acts as a selective barrier allowing nutrients to enter the cell and wastes to leave the cell.?
plasma membrane

What The outer layer of a cell that acts as a gatekeeper to a cell is the?
Plasma membrane
How does the plasma membrane of the cell compare with the membrane in the U-shape?
Angiotensin is activated by a renal enzyme called
What type of molecule acts as a gate for substances to enter or leave the cell?
plasma membrane
How does nutrients enter a cell?
The plasma membrane.
What on the outside of the plasma membrane acts as signals or markers to help cells recognize on another?
carbohydrates
How would plasma membrane compare to a human organ?
Well your skin is an organ, yep it is. Your skin acts as a protector or a barrier from outside harm. A Plasma membrane also performs the same function.
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 cell structure is important in homeostasis?
It's the plasma membrane. This is because it acts like a gate regulating what can enter and leave the cell. If the plasma membrane did not exist the cell would die because it might take in something that could kill it.
