The cell type that is porous to water and other materials while being strong enough to support and protect cells is the plant cell. Plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose that provides structural support and protection, while the cell membrane allows for the selective passage of water and nutrients. This combination enables plants to maintain turgor pressure and withstand various environmental stresses.
The part of the cell that is porous to water and other materials, yet strong enough to support and protect most cells, is the cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane. It is primarily composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, allowing selective permeability. This structure enables the cell to maintain homeostasis by regulating the movement of substances in and out while providing structural integrity.
Cells with porous membranes, such as plant cells, are able to allow water and other materials to pass through them due to the presence of channels or transport proteins that facilitate the movement of molecules. These channels or transport proteins regulate the flow of water and substances into and out of the cell to maintain cellular homeostasis.
Most cell _______ are porous to water and other materials but are strong enough to help enable plants to stand against _______________. Can anyone fill in the blanks?
Most cell walls are porous to water and other materials but are strong enough to help plants stand against gravity and wind.
Sedimentary rocks such as sandstone are examples of porous materials.

Porous items can be challenging to disinfect effectively because the porosity creates spaces where pathogens can hide. Common disinfection methods may not penetrate porous materials enough to kill all pathogens. Steam or heat treatment can be more effective in disinfecting porous items.
Porous means, containing pores ie, small or tiny hole, while non-porous means, without pores or holes.
Sedimentary rocks such as sandstone are examples of porous materials.
Porous simply mean a material has pores and allows fluid to pass. There are many thousands of such materials.
No, an umbrella is not an example of a porous material. Porous materials have small holes or spaces that allow liquids or gases to pass through. Umbrellas are typically made of non-porous materials like polyester or nylon that are designed to repel water.

epoxy resin is the best for bonding different types of materials, especially non-porous materials
