What is the cell structure that is located in the external boundaries of the cell?
Plasma membrane
Which kind of cell has more clearly defined boundaries?
Prokaryotic cells.
What forms the outside boundaries that separates the cell from its environment in cells without a cell wall?
In cells without cell walls, the cell membrane forms an outside boundary that separates the cell from its environment!
Can you tell where a cell ends and another begin?
Cells have very well definted boundaries. For animal cells, it is the cell membrane, and for plant cells it is the cell wall.
Do prokaryotes have boundaries like eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes have cell boundaries like eukaryotes. It has a cell membrane and a cell wall. There are two types of cell walls: Gram + or Gram-. The exterior of the cell usually has glycocalyx, flagellum, fimbriae, and pili. The glycocalyx can be sticky (a capsule) or loose (a slime layer). The flagellum look like whips and can help move the cell. The fimbriae look like short hairs and allow the cell to attach. The pili are longer than the fimbriae and shorter than the flagella. These allow the transfer of DNA from the cell to another cell.
Are cell membrane the boundaries of a cell?
yes. they are the outer most boundaries of any cell
What is the cell structure that is located in the external boundaries of the cell?
Plasma membrane
What Compare he outer boundaries of an animals cell and a plant cell?
How should i know
The structure of Cells that provide Its boundaries is called?
The Cell Membrane.
How cytoplasm kept inside the cell without mixing with the cytoplasm of other cells?
The cell membrane surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell and defines the boundaries of the cell.

Prokaryotic cells.

What is the importance of cell boundaries?
1.It provide shape to the cell. 2.It protect cell membrane and cell content against machinical injuries. 3.Helps in movement of material in and out of the cell. 4.It provide individuality to cell by seperating a cell from other. 5.it helps in keeping the cell component at their place.
Where is the mitochondria in a cell?
All organelles in cells are suspended in the cytoplasm (think - jello) but where they are is not really defined. However, if this was a test question, I'd write within the boundaries of the Cell Membrane and cytoplasm.
What button do you click in the alignment group of the home tab to center cells vertically between the top and bottom cell boundaries?
The alignment group buttons only align horizontally. If you want to align vertically, select cell format and format the cell.
