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.

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.
What organelle involved the processes of osmosis an diffusion?
Osmosis and diffusion take place across the plasma membrane, the outer "wall" of the cell. It is considered to be an organelle because it carries out a variety of functions. The cell membrane or plasma membrane is made up of a double layes of phosphorous and lipid molecules, known as the 'phospholipid bilayer'.
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.
How would the chief hypothesis concerning the origin of the ER and Golgi apparatus be described?
Infolding of the plasma membrane.
Which of the following would not be found in the plasma membrane of a human cell?
nucleic acid
Do eucharyotes have a plasma membrane?
Yes.
What would the nuclear membrane be to a car?
whats is the nuclear membrane ofa car
How is the nuclear membrane important to the cell?
The nuclear membrane is important to the cell because if there was no nuclear membrane the cell would have no organization of the genetic material of the eukaryoytic cells.
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.
What part of a cell would be an emergency repair and why?
The nuclear membrane because when the cell membrane gets hurt the nuclear membrane heals it or recovers it.
Would a cell survive without a plasma membrane?
Not for a nanosecond.
What would happen if the plasma membrane were composed solely of phospholipids and no proteins?
there would be no protein channels in the plasma membrane and as a result of that there would be no entry or exit of the materials across the membrane
What process is this called when cells enter the plasma membrane?
The only time a cell would be entering the plasma membrane would be with a white blood cell. The process is called phagocytosis, a form of endocytosis.
What are some non examples of a plasma membrane?
i would say tha some unexample of plasma membrane would be butts or boobies or maybe even penisis and vaginias ,but thats just my oppinion
How would you differentiate the plasma membrane and the other organelles?
The plasma membrane is the cell barrier, the organelles are all the things floating around inside that barrier
What would happen if there was damage to 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.
Plasma membrane compared to a sandwich what would the filling be?
hydrophobic tails
