Is the cell-membrane permeable?
The cell membrane is semi-permeable.
What can you conclude about the advantage of the cell membrane having hydrophobic ends in the phospholipid bilayer?
Well it prevents polar molecules from passing through freely, giving the membrane its semi-permeable properties.
Example of Semi permeable membrane?
Animal cell membranes are a semi-permeable membrane.
The plasma membrane is a semipermeable membrane. This means that it is?
it is permeable to some molecules and not permeable to others.
What is a cell membrane that is selectivly permeable?
A cell membrane is found on both plant and animal cells it selectively chooses what substances may enter or leave the cell. Hence the term selectively permeable. For a more advanced explanation I recommend you research protein icebergs and the different types of transport a membrane can take part in. Example active transport
How cell membrane are selectively permeable?
The membrane is selectively permeable because it has specific instructions on what the membrane can allow through based on the How_is_the_cell_membrane_semi_or_selectively_permeable, size, and ionization of the particle.
What is the definition of impermeable?
A membrane that lets all materials cross is permeable. A membrane that lets nothing cross is impermeable.
What is definition of selectively permeable?
The selectively permeable phospholipid bilayer (a.k.a plasma membrane) is 'selectively permeable' because it selects which molecules it allows to permeate (pass through).
What allows some molecules to pass through freely while limiting passage of other molecules?
That is a semi-permeable membrane.
Is the cell-membrane permeable?
The cell membrane is semi-permeable.
What can you conclude about the advantage of the cell membrane having hydrophobic ends in the phospholipid bilayer?
Well it prevents polar molecules from passing through freely, giving the membrane its semi-permeable properties.
Name something that is made out of chloroplasts?
a smooth outer membrane which is freely permeable to moleculesa smooth inner membranea system of thylakoid membranes
Example of Semi permeable membrane?
Animal cell membranes are a semi-permeable membrane.
The plasma membrane is a semipermeable membrane. This means that it is?
it is permeable to some molecules and not permeable to others.
What is the basic strcture of a cell membrane?
Cell membrane is elastic and transparent. It can be impermeable, permeable, semi-permeable or selectively permeable. In humans the plasma membrane is selectively permeable that is it allows entry to certain substance.
What does the cell membrane do to avoid hings going inside the cell?
Cell membrane is a Selectively Permeable Membrane so it does not allow all the substances to pass through it.It controls the movement of substances in and out of the substances.Unlike a cell membrane,the cell wall has large holes in it allowing the water and dissolved minerals to pass through hence cell wall is known as Freely Permeable Membrane.
What is a permeable membrane?
permeable membrane: is a membrane that allows water to pass through the membrane ; the salt water is then left out
