What else can I help you with?
Do a cell membrane guides the cell?
No A cell membrane does not guide a cell The function of the cell membrane is to enclose all the components of the cell into a self sufficient packet.
Membrane that separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell?
The anwser is nuclear membrane! Is that not self explanitory?
Why does the cell need a cell membrane?
because they need to keep them self save
Do carbohydrates bind to the outside of cell membrane?
Yes they can be bonded to the outside of cell membranes. The carbohydrates located on the cell membrane are there to help the cell in cell recognition to determine whether a particle close to it is one that it needs to have within it or one that it does not need or that could be potentially harmful to it. They have a specific orientation with the outer layer of the cell membrane to help more fully with the recognition of "self" vs. "other"
How does self healing relate to cell membrane?
Self-healing in the context of cell membranes refers to the ability of the membrane to repair itself by resealing any damage or disruptions caused by physical or chemical stress. The cell membrane is composed of phospholipid bilayers that can undergo self-repair mechanisms to maintain the integrity and functionality of the cell. This self-healing property helps the cell maintain its structure and protect its contents from external threats.
Where are the antigens of the ABO blood group are located?
The antigens of the ABO blood group are located on the surface of red blood cells. These antigens determine a person's blood type (A, B, AB, O) based on the presence or absence of specific sugars on the red blood cell membrane.
What structural component of a cell membrane is involved when a cell is recognized as belonging to a specific tissue?
Glycoproteins and glycolipids are involved in cell recognition within specific tissues. These molecules, which are carbohydrates attached to proteins or lipids on the cell membrane, help cells communicate with each other and identify self from non-self.
An animal cell lacking oligosaccharides on the external surface of its plasma membrane would likely be impaired in which function?
Cell-cell recognition and communication would likely be impaired in an animal cell lacking oligosaccharides on the external surface of its plasma membrane. Oligosaccharides help cells recognize self from non-self, facilitate cell adhesion, and play a role in immune responses.
What membrane protein has sugars attached to itself and helps cells recognize self?
Glycoproteins are membrane proteins that have sugars attached to themselves. These sugars play a role in cell recognition by helping cells identify "self" molecules from non-self molecules.
Proteins in the cell membrane that identify the cell are called?
These proteins are called self markers. They tell the immune cells that they belong in the body and they should be attacked.Cell receptors (proteins) on the cell membrane mediate the inter cellular communications.
What component of the cell membrane is responsible for cell recognition and identity?
Glycoproteins and glycolipids on the cell membrane are responsible for cell recognition and identity. These molecules have unique patterns of carbohydrates that allow cells to differentiate between self and non-self cells, important for immune response and cell signaling.
Name any two organelles that are self-replicating?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts.
