What is the name of the thing that helps a protist move by extending its cell membrane and cytoplasm?

These kind of protists are called pseudopodia, which means 'fake legs'. The extension of their cell membrane and cytoplasm helps them to move and feed.

What is a temporary extenstion of cytoplasm and plasma membrane that helps an amoeba move is called?
pseudopodium
Is the cytoskeleton in the plasma membrane?
No. It is attached to the plasma membrane though, which is important. The cytoskeleton gives cells shape and rigidity etc and so it is important for it to be attached to the plasma membrane. The cytoskeleton is composed of molecules that are located in the cytoplasm but that are attached to the plasma membrane via specific proteins. Hope that helps!
Which part of a cell is the fluid that helps keep the organellesin place?
It is the "Cytoplasm"
Where does the nucleus located in plant cell?
The plant cell has a cell wall outside the cell membrane which gives it a regular shape, unlike animal cells. Inside the plant cell, there is a large fluid filled sac called the vacuole which also helps to maintain the cell's shape and which takes up most of the space that in an animal cell is filled up by cytoplasm. In the little space remaining between the vacuole and the cell membrane, there is the cytoplasm, where the nucleus is found. So the nucleus in a plant cell is found at the edge in the cytoplasm close to the cell membrane!!
What is a cell membrane?
It is the outer layer of protection of the Cell. It controls what goes in and out of the Cell. It contains lipids, proteins, and phospholipids. It is very important because it protects the Cell from the environment.It is called a neurolemma if it is around a nerve cell, and a sarcolemma if it is around a muscle cell.cell mem·branenounthe semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell.hope this helps!
How do substances move across a membrane?
The membrane allows it and cytoplasm also helps it.
How does the cytoplasm helps the cell to hold it's shape?
It doesn't the cell membrane does.

pseudopodium
What does the cell membrane do for a animal cell?
The cell membrane is used to keep the cytoplasm in place, give structure to the cell and i believe it acts as a gate keeper for chemicals. Hope this helps. :)
What 3 structures are found in plant cells and animal cells?
Nucleus- contains genetic information and controls the activities of the cell. Cytoplasm- where chemical reactions take place, which are controlled by enzymes Cell membrane- Controls what goes in and out of the cell They also both contain mitochondria and ribosomes. Hope this helps!
What do the cytoplasm do in a plant cel?
The cytoplasm is the thick, jellylike material inside the cell membrane - not including the nucleus, in which the organelles are located. The cytoplasm helps to move materials around the cell. Cytoplasm provides support to the internal structures of the cell and helps it to maintain the shape and consistency of the cell. It also dissolves cellular waste and breaks down glucose molecules into pyruvate molecules, which are used by the mitochondria.
What are the three parts of the cell?
Plant Cell: Cell Wall Cell Membrane Vacuole Nucleus Chloroplast Animal Cell: Cell Membrane Nucleus Cytoplasm Hope this helps and it's correct LOL

What do bacterial plant and animal cells all have in common?
All of these are living cells. They all have DNA as genetic material, cytoplasm and a cell membrane. They vary in size, vary in shape and are measured in micrometers. They all form an important part of our ecosystems.

How does cytoplasm work?
It helps the cell by keeping it healthy. It also like to eat vagina. So suck a dick.
