No.

It just protects germs and viruses and bacteria and other bad stuff from getting into the cell so it doesn't get infected.

Where does respiration happen in eukaryotes and in prokaryotes?

In eukaryotes respiration happens in the mitochondria and in prokaryotes the mechanisms of respiration are in the cell membrane as protons must be taken in through the membrane.


What does the cell membrane of a cell do?

The Cell Membrane Protects The Cell Of Anything Harmful.


Which of the following would not be found in the plasma membrane of a human cell?

Mitochondria would not be found in the plasma membrane of a human cell. Mitochondria are organelles responsible for cellular respiration and energy production, and they are typically found in the cytoplasm of the cell, not within the plasma membrane.


Which is the powerhouse of a cell in prokaryotes?

The "powerhouse" of a prokaryotic cell can be the cell membrane. That's where they produce their ATP.


What do scientists use for any part of a cell enclosed by a membrane?

If it's inside the cell membrane and also enclosed in another membrane, it's an organelle. Not all organelles necessarily have membranes, but anything in a cell with a membrane would be an organelle. I would imagine you could call it a membranous organelle to be specific.


What is a nucleur membrane?

it protects the nucleus from anything outside of a cell if able to pass throgh the cell membrane.


What cell part is responsible for cellular respiration in prokaryotes?

In prokaryotes, cellular respiration primarily occurs in the cell membrane, as they lack mitochondria. The cell membrane contains the necessary proteins and enzymes for the electron transport chain and ATP production. Additionally, the cytoplasm plays a role in glycolysis, which is the first step of cellular respiration.


How does cell respiration take place in bacteria?

In bacteria, cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm.


What is the direction of movement of various substances across the cell membrane for the cell's life activities?

excretion, transport and respiration


What part of the cell does respiration occur?

Respiration occurs in the mitochondria of the cell, specifically in the inner membrane where the electron transport chain and ATP synthesis take place.


Which organ of bacteria shows respiration?

bacteria has no organs. It has only cell wall, membrane, flagellum, pilli, DNA and cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, there are enzymes of glycolysis. Products of glycolysis and next decompositions of food can be used to give another energy by respiration. This respiration could take place on the membrane or in cytoplasm (I am not sure if it is possible in the cytoplasm, it is my guess).
