What process is this called when cells enter the plasma membrane?
The only time a cell would be entering the plasma membrane would be with a white blood cell. The process is called phagocytosis, a form of endocytosis.
Do all types of cells have plasma membranes?
YES... All LIVING cells have plasma membranes. Not every cell contains cell wall, but plasma membrane is essential for the life of a cell. If the cell loses its membrane or the membrane is ruptured, the cell will lose its cellular form and all the contents of the cell would be wasted and it would not be called a cell after that.
What 5 molecules form plasma membrane?
4+1
What is an active process that allows the plasma membrane to form an invagenation?
endocytosis
What cells form a porous membrane surrounding the endothelial cells of the glomerulus?
podocytes
What form the majority of the plasma membrane of cells.?
Phospholipids

Because cells have a watery environment bothinside and outside the polar ends of the phospholipids in the plasma membrane from layer?
Because cells have a watery environment both inside and outsidethe polar ends of the phospholipids in the plasma membrane form layers?

What are found in the plasma membrane of cells?
The cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer with water-soluble “heads” that form surfaces and water-insoluble “tails” that form the interior.In the membrane there are cholesterol molecules that stabilize the membrane so it isn't so flexible and proteins. These act as receptors, pores, channels, carriers and self-markers.
What is an active process that allows the plasma membrane to form an invagenation?
endocytosis
Does the plasma membrane of a living cell form an impenetrable barrier between the internal millieu and the environment?
No, the plasma membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that regulates the flow of most molecules across the membrane. The plasma membrane allows waste products to exit the cell and nutrients to enter the cell.
How does an ameba form a food vacuole?
through budding of the vacuole from the plasma membrane
When B-cells are activated they divide to form antibody-producing cells called?
Plasma cells.
What 2 molecules make up the cell membrane?
The plasma membrane is flexible and is made up of organic molecules called lipids and proteins .
How does a myelin sheath form?
The myelin sheath is an extruded plasma membrane wrapped in a spiral fashion around a nerve axon. The myelin membranes are part of the Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system.
