What is the funtion of the cell membrane?
The function of the cell membrane is to allow materials that are needed into the cell and the materials that are not needed and/or a waste product are taken out of the cell.
What regulates passage of materials into and out of cells?
The cell membrane controls movement of materials in and out of the cell.
How do structures within cell allow the cell to be specialized?
The structures allow the cell to perform specific functions.
Why is the cell membrane semi-permiable?
By design ; proteins residing within the membrane provide both passive pores (holes) in the membrane as well as active transport across the membrane.
What of a cell allows material to enter and exit the cell?
Which statements describe the cell membrane? Check all that apply. It only allows certain materials to leave the cell. It allows all materials to leave the cell. It only allows certain materials to enter the cell. It allows all materials to enter the cell. It helps the cell get rid of waste. It brings waste into the cell for storage.
What are the holes in a cell membrane?
They are called porins and help in the transfer of materials in and out of the cell.
What is the nuclear pore used for?
The nuclear pores are tiny holes in the the nuclear membrane surrounding the nucleus of a cell, which allow the movement of solluable materials through the nuclear membrane, in and out of the nucleus.
What is the funtion of the cell membrane?
The function of the cell membrane is to allow materials that are needed into the cell and the materials that are not needed and/or a waste product are taken out of the cell.
What membrane allows only some materials to move in and out of the cell?
The cell membrane, which is a lipid bilayer, will only allow some things in and allow others to go out of the cell.
What is the role nuclear pore?
Small holes in the nuclear membrane of a cell's nucleus, which allow the transportation of water solluable materials in and out of the nucleus through the nuclear membrane.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through?
permeability
What are the holes in the mitochondria of an animal cell called?
They are not holes.They are membrane proteins.
Can substances move in and out of the cell membrane?
Yes, how else could the cell live. Cell membranes have structures (holes) in them to allow things to move in and out. These holes are special structures in the membrane and they "control" what goes across the membrane. I have made a link below to a diagram of the cell membrane to show some of these structures.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through it is called?
permeability
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through called?
permeability
What cell allows some materials to move in and out of the cell?
The cell membrane, which is a lipid bilayer, will only allow some things in and allow others to go out of the cell.
Which part of a cell allows nutrients and other materials to enter or leave the cell?
Transport proteins allow nutrients to enter and leave cells. Transport proteins are peppered throughout the cell membrane. Most molecules need the transport proteins to enter or leave the cell, but it's possible for some molecules, like water, to diffuse through the membrane by osmosis.
