Do animals have cell membrane?
yes, they do. The cell membrane is in the cell. The cell membrane protects the cell. It lets water and fluids into the cell and protects the cell from unneeded fluid.
The outside of an animal cell is?
This is the cell membrane or plasma membrane which is made of a phospholipid bilayer.
Why does the cell membrane acts like a fluid?
The cell membrane acts like a fluid because of its phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipids are designed in such a way that they are prevented from packing tightly together allowing molecules to drift around in the membrane. This is commonly called fluid mosaic.
Why is it important for the cell membrane to be fluid?
The reason why the cell membrane requires a fluid consistency is to allow certain molecules to pass through. Fluidity is also important for phagocytosis to take place.
Which part of the cell controls what gets in and out of the cell?
This is the cell membrane, the fluid mosaic, or the phospholipid bilayer.All names of the control membrane for in/out traffic of the cell.
