cholestoral it binds with the fatty acids (hydrophobic tails giving the membrane stability, and making it less fluid. It can be said that the more cholestoral present within the membrane the less fluid the membrane will become. . . Some cells within certain tissue need more cholesteral than others to give them more rigidity, for example the heart may be such an organ made up of tissue containing these properties because it is perpetually being pounded by the flowing and pumping of the blood against its cells, but check on this last point

The cholesterol associated with animal cell membranes?
enables the membrane to stay fluid more easily when cell temperature drops.
What steroid helps stabilize the lipids of a plasma membrane?
Cholesterol
Are glycolipids a constituent of plasma membrane?
Yes Glycoproteins are suited in the phospholipid bilayer which makes up the cell membrane. They also help stabilize the cell membrane as well as assist in cellular recognition.
What is the purpose of cholesterol in a membrane?
Cholesterol helps stabilize the membrane at warm temperatures, but also helps keep the membrane fluid at lower temperatures.
What is The plasma membrane helps to maintain a cells what?
The plasma membrane helps to maintain homeostassi within the cell by allowing substances to move in and out of the cell the plasma membrane is used to maintain homeostasis within the cell by allowing substances to move in and out of the cell
Does cholesterol helps to stabilize cell membrane while decreasing mobility phispholipids?
yes, true

What cell helps maintain homeostasis?
the cell membrane :)
What does the endoplasmic in a cell do?
i am pretty sure that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) helps with the cell membrane and if part of the cell membrane dies it helps rebuild that part of it
What is the purpose of cholesterol in a membrane?
Cholesterol helps stabilize the membrane at warm temperatures, but also helps keep the membrane fluid at lower temperatures.
How can cell membrane be like walls?
The cell membrane keeps the cell from falling apart and helps it stay intact.
How does the cell membrane help the plant cell?
The Cell Membrane helps the plant cell by guarding any viruses that come near it.
What cell membrane does for a plant cell?
it helps it obtain life.
Is there a membrane in a plant and amimal cell?
Yes A membrane works like skin. It helps protect the cell.
What is The plasma membrane helps to maintain a cells what?
The plasma membrane helps to maintain homeostassi within the cell by allowing substances to move in and out of the cell the plasma membrane is used to maintain homeostasis within the cell by allowing substances to move in and out of the cell
