Compare the functions of the cell wall in plant cell and the cell membrane in an animal cell?
The cell membrane is just a selectively permeable (meaning it controls what goes in and out) membrane that also holds the cell together and protects it.
Plant cells also have this, but they have an additional cell wall that provides structure and support for the cell. That is why trees and other plants can stand upright without skeletons and muscles.
Also, the cell wall keeps the plant cell from shrinking too much or bursting (which can happen to animal cells) from too much water as a result of osmosis.
A plant's cell membrane has fibre, hemi-cellulose and cellulose which encourage more structure. An animal's cell membrane, on the other hand, only has polysaccharides and lipids which provide poorer structural integrity than a plant's cell does.
What else can I help you with?
Is the muscle cell a plant or animal cell?
The muscle cell is an animal cell. It is a specialized cell found in animals that is responsible for generating force through its contraction, allowing for movement and various physiological functions in the body.
What provides a permeable barrier for the cell and do both animal and plant cells have it?
The cell membrane provides a permeable barrier for the cell, allowing for the regulation of substances entering and exiting the cell. Both animal and plant cells have a cell membrane to maintain their internal environment and support cellular functions.
Do plant and animal cells have a nuclear membrane?
Yes, both plant and animal cells have a nuclear membrane that surrounds the nucleus. This membrane helps to protect the genetic material inside the nucleus and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
Is nuclear membrane in a plant or a animal cell?
Both plant and animal cells have nuclear membranes as both plants and animals are eukaryotes.
What Compare he outer boundaries of an animals cell and a plant cell?
Plant cells have a rigid cell wall outside the cell membrane, providing structural support and protection. Animal cells lack a cell wall and have a flexible cell membrane only. Plant cells also have larger vacuoles and chloroplasts for photosynthesis, which are generally absent in animal cells.
Is a cell membrane a plant or animal cell or both plus?
A plant has a cell membrane and so does an animal, but they're not just one. An animal has a cell membrane just like a plant but they look different and have different functions.
What does the cell membrane do in plant and animal cells?
They protect and hold the cells together. It controles wht goes in and out of the cell.
How are the structures that have similar functions alike and different among plants and animals?
the differences between an animal cell and a plant cell is that an animal cell has a cell membrane and a plant cell has a cell wall.
Cell membrane in plant or animal?
The cell membrane in both plants and animals is a phospholipid bilayer that regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell. It functions to protect the cell from its surroundings, provide structure and support, and facilitate communication with other cells. Additionally, the cell membrane in plants contains additional components such as cell wall and plasmodesmata for extra support and communication.
Is the muscle cell a plant or animal cell?
The muscle cell is an animal cell. It is a specialized cell found in animals that is responsible for generating force through its contraction, allowing for movement and various physiological functions in the body.
What are the functions of the cell membranes animal and plant cells?
the cell membrane protect the cell ,contain the cytoplasm and controls in the cellular transport.
How are animal and and plant cells different?
animal cells have just a membrane and plant cells have a cell wall to overlap the membrane.
Is cell membrane a plant cell?
There is a cell membrane in plant cells and in animal cells.
Where is the cytoplasm in the animal cell or the plant cell?
The cytoplasm is found in both animal and plant cells. It is a jelly-like substance that fills the space between the cell membrane and the nucleus. It plays a key role in various cellular activities and functions.
What provides a permeable barrier for the cell and do both animal and plant cells have it?
The cell membrane provides a permeable barrier for the cell, allowing for the regulation of substances entering and exiting the cell. Both animal and plant cells have a cell membrane to maintain their internal environment and support cellular functions.
What do cell membranes do in both plants and animal cells?
Cell membranes control what passes in and out of the cell. The cell membrane functions this way in both plant and animal cells.-Chocolate391
Plant and animal cells are examples of?
eukaryotic cells. They contain membrane-bound organelles, a nucleus that houses the genetic material, and specialized structures for various cellular functions. Both plant and animal cells have similarities in structure, but differences in certain organelles and functions.
