What happens if the particle is too large to get across the membrane?

The cell use something called a protein channel that helps larger particles across the cell membrane.


If a resting potential becomes more negative what happens to the cell?

When the membrane potential becomes more negative it is being hyperpolarized. Remember the resting membrane potential is already at a negative state (~70mV). So if you are making a comparison of a membrane potential that is hyperpolarized in comparison to a resting membrane potential, the resting membrane potential is said to be more depolarized.When the membrane potential becomes more positive it is called depolarization.

What happens when a cell reaches its maximum size?

As the cell increases in size, the cell membrane can only efficiently manage so much of the cytoplasm and organelles within. Note that if a cell becomes too large, DNA instructions cannot be copied quickly enough to make proteins that the cell needs to support life.If the cell becomes too large for the cell membrane to manage, the cell goes through the cell cycle and divides into two new daughter cells which contain identical genetic material as its original cell or parent cell.


What happens to the pocket in the cell in the membrane when it breaks loose from the membrane?

Usually, the membrane will burst and let its contents out into the cell membrane and get used up.
