What is a real life example of the cell membrane?

A shoe box is one, because it protects the shoes from any damage of the outside world.


How does a cell wall differ from a cell membrane?

A "cell wall" is found in plant cells, and a "cell membrane" is generally found in animals.A "cell wall" is made of cellulose whereas a "cell membrane" is made up of lipids and proteins.A "cell wall" is completely permeable and a "cell membrane" is partially permeable.The cell membrane is on both an animal and plant cell, while a cell wall is a stiff 'box' shape enclosing a plant cell.AnalogyThink of a cell membrane as a plastic bag, filled with clear jelly, with a large blob of modeling clay in it (the clay being the nucleus). This represents an animal cell.Now add a small box and a few green blobs of clay to the inside of the bag (these are the plant cell's vacuole and chloroplasts). Put the plastic bag and its contents into a large box. This is a plant cell, and the big box is the cell wall.


What surrounds the individual muscle cell?

In an animal cell, the cell membrane surrounds a cell. It is like a plastic bag protecting the insides of the cell. In a plant cell, there is the same but there is also a tough cell wall like a cardboard box around the cell. Hope this helps :-)


Difference between cell wall and cell membrane?

The cell membrane is on both an animal and plant cell, and a cell wall is a stiff 'box' shape enclosing a plant cell. Think of it as a plastic bag, filled with jelly, with blobs of plastercene in is, the plastercene being the nucleus and the jelly the chlorophill. The plastic bag is a cell membrane. This is an animal cell. Now add a small box and a few more different coloured blobs of plastercene inside the bag- these are the plant cell's vacole and chloroplasts. Put the plastic bag and its contents into a large box- this is a plant cell. The big box is the cell wall. Hope this is useful!


What does the leaf cell look like?

Plant cell possess definite shape, it may be oval, rectangular or box-like, it can also can be ovoid depending upon the tissue type.The rigidity of plant cell is due to the presence of cell wall out side the plasma membrane, which is lacking in animal cells.See the related links for pictures:

What is a cell with a box shape and a chloroplast and cell wall?

That is a plant cell.Cell wall gives the shape


What can cell wall be compared to?

A cell wall, simple. The cell wall is the out layer of a plant cell. It protects what is inside. A box is just like a cell wall it protects the contents inside. You would go through the cell wall first then you would hit the cell membrane. But remember only plants have a cell wall.......hoped that helped!

How do you make a plant cell model?

get a shoe box and take the lid of. Then get some strings and paper. Attach the strings to the inside of the shoe box and hang the pieces of paper ( that you drew the plant cell features on ) onto the string and color everything in


What is the name of the rigid box around plant cells?

The rigid box around plant cells is called the cell wall. It provides structural support and protection to the cell, and is composed primarily of cellulose.


Why do the onion cells look like boxes?

Probably because the cells are dead, and all that remain are the cell walls. The perimeter of the box is the cell wall, dead or alive.

What Is found on the outside of plant cells and provides a box within which the rest of the cell is found?

The cell wall


How can you tell if a cell is a plant or animal?

ussually the plant cell has a cell wall so it is more of a box-like shape. and the plant cell has a large vacuole which causes the nucleus to be on the side. in a plant cell there are small vaculoes so the nucleus is ussually in the middle and the plant cell has no cell wall just a mambrane therefore it is more sphereical.
