What on the outside of the plasma membrane acts as signals or markers to help cells recognize on another?
carbohydrates
What is the cell surface marker?
The CD system is commonly used as cell markers in immunophenotyping, allowing cells to be defined based on what molecules are present on their surface. These markers are often used to associate cells with certain immune functions.
Which membrane component provides cell identity?
Some membrane proteins have carbohydrates attached to them, forming glycoproteins that act as identification markers. Each cell in an Individual has the exact same glycoprotein and it allows the WBC cells that check ID to be sure that it belongs. These are sometimes called self markers.
What were the specialized structures in the cell membrane that are involved with communication?
cells with similar markers stick together and functions as
What are graffiti markers used for?
Graffiti markers are markers that graffiti artists use to complete their street art. There are several different types of graffiti markers, and each has it's own purpose. There are paint markers, ink markers, squeeze markers, industrial markers, and empty markers.
How can you write an expression for the total number of markers that are NOT black with for 6 blue markers 4 purple markers 5 black markers and 7 red markers?
17 markers
Santo has 14 yellow markers he has twice as many blue markers as yellow markers he has twice as many red markers as blue markers how many markers does he have in all?
98 markers.He has 98 in all.
Are Mr. Sketch markers magic markers?
Both are brand names for permanent markers.
Why do white blood cells sometimes cause tissue rejection?
cells with protein markers do not interact with white blood cells' receptor molecules and are not detected by the immune system.
Large molecules may have reaction sites termed?
Molecules and cells have reaction and activity areas known under three terms. These are active, receptor, and binding sites. Such sites have markers and binding proteins allowing for their activation and or transfer of genetic materials.
What do glycolipids do?
Glycolipids may be involved in cells signalling that they're ''self''; to allow the immune system to recognise them. They could also be hormone receptors Glycolipids are a carbohydrate with lipids attached. Their main function is to provide energy and to serve as markers for cellular recognition. Glycolipids are found in cell membrane animals tissues and nerve cells, composed of lipids and carbohydrates such as glucose or galactose as in cerebrosides or combination with sialic acids in gangliosides. It provide energy as well as cell recognition. In cell membrane it is bonding with water molecules. and I was there whn john died
What component of the cell membrane is responsible for cell recognition and identity?
the cell surface markers are what identify the cell type
