The shell is porous to allow oxygen to get to the developing embryo, somewhat like a cell wall allows certain things to enter the cell

What can you compare a cell membrane to?
you can compare a cell membrane to a strainer because it controls what drains out or stays in
Which cell has cytoplasm?
Both animal and plant cells have cytoplasm.
What structure controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell?
cell membrane
What is a metaphor for cell membrane?
Many textbooks will compare a cell membrane to the fluid mosaic model, which means that the parts of the membrane (phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins etc.) are not stuck in one place; they move around and can pass by one another while still keeping the integrity of the membrane. That is mainly for the structure, but structure always lends to function.
Where is the cell control center and the cell membrane?
where is the cell control membrane and the cell membrane
What can you compare a cell membrane to?
you can compare a cell membrane to a strainer because it controls what drains out or stays in
What everyday object can you compare microvilli to?
I would compare cilia to tires of a car, since cilia helps the cell move.
What things can you compare a plant cell to?
I had a project like this, I did a cell is like a city and I made the following organelles compared to everyday use from cities: Chloroplasts-Solar Panels Nucleus- Mayor Cell Wall- City Border Cell Membrane- City Gate Nuclear Membrane- Security Guard Cytoplasm- Streets Mitochondria- Powerplant Chromatin/DNA-Blueprints
What part of a cell is related to the earth's mantle?
I suppose you could compare the mantle to the cell wall or cell membrane.
Membrane covered compartments that form when part of the cell membrane an object and pinches pinches?
vesicles
How is a cell membrane related to tissue paper?
It is a soft object
What is something you can compare a cell wall to everyday life?
Yours skin,
Fluid mosaic model of a cell membrane?
Its called "the fluid mosaic model" of the cell membrane. This describes the clumping together of phospholipids to form rafts and their motion (along with single phospholipids) throughout the membrane.
What are the membrane covered compartments that form when part of the cell membrane surrounds an object and pinches off?
Vacuoles
What object can a cell membrane be?
something to represent a cell membrane would be a sponge because it lets things pass in and out of it
What is an example of cell membrane?
A cell membrane is similar to the object you use as a balloon. It forms the wall around the cell and allows some things to come in and some to go out. It is a boundary.
How does the plasma membrane of the cell compare with the membrane in the U-shape?
Angiotensin is activated by a renal enzyme called
