Plasma membrane defines the boundary of the cell and regulates the flow of material into and out of the cell. (if it got rupture) Ruptured plasma membrane generally heals within no time but if rupturing does not heal, the cell contents will spill over and cell is killed.

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.


If you were a protein destined to reach the plasma membrane and you were making your way through the Golgi when suddenly Golgi trafficking was blocked at the trans face what would happen to you?

What part of the cell must be broken down to extract DNA?

In a eukaryote cell the double walled nuclear membrane must be broken, or pierced to release the DNA into the cytoplasm and then the phospholipid bilayer would have to be breached next to release the DNA from this type cell A prokaryote cell would need both its cell wall and its plasma membrane breached to release the DNA from the cell.


Is the nuclear envelope composed of two bilayers?

There are two phospholipid bilayers that are present in the nuclear envelope. They are the inner and outer phospholipid bilayers. Nuclear envelope are also referred to as karyotheca, nucleolemma or nuclear membrane.


Why it is important for the nuclear membrane to disintegrate during mitosis?

The disintegration of the nuclear membrane during mitosis allows the duplicated chromosomes to align properly in preparation for cell division. This breakdown facilitates the separation of chromosomes into daughter cells and ensures that each cell receives a complete set of genetic material. Additionally, it allows for the equal distribution of genetic material to maintain genomic integrity.

What are some non examples of a plasma membrane?

Non-examples of a plasma membrane include the walls of a water bottle, the cover of a book, and a glass window pane. These structures do not regulate the movement of molecules like a plasma membrane does in living cells.

What would happen if there were damage to the receptors on the plasma membrane?

Plasma membrane defines the boundary of the cell and regulates the flow of material into and out of the cell. Ruptured plasma membrane generally heals within no time but if rupturing does not heal, the cell contents will spill over and cell is killed.
