A cells boundary is called the what?
In animal cells, the plasma membrane forms the outer boundary of the cell. In fungi and plant cells, a cell wall exists outside the plasma membrane. Gram-positive bacteria have outer cell walls, while Gram-negative bacteria possess inner and outer plasma membranes.
What is a semi-permeable membrane that forms a boundary between the cell and the external environment?
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that forms a boundary between the cell and the external environment. The vacuole is the storage area within the cell.
What is the flexible outer boundary of the cell?
lol. are you a ucdavis student in Richard grosberg's bis2b class?
Do all living things have cell walls as outer boundary?
yes ------------------- Actually, that is incorrect. Most plant cells have cell walls as a distinct type of structure. Other cells including bacteria and animal cells have a cell membrane or a plasma membrane as their outer boundary.
Which structure regulates passage of molecules into and out of cells?
The cell membrane is a membrane separating the inside of the cell from the outside environment. This structure is also known as the plasma membrane or the cytoplasmic membrane.
What component of plasma membrane forms most of the cells outer boundary?
the phospholipids. by weight it is half protein and half lipid

Are plasma membrane outermost component of all cells?
No. Some secrete a covering.
In addition to a cell membrane what other cell boundary might some cells such as plant cells have?
Plasma
Where is the plasma membrane found?
The cell membrane is the outer boundary of animal cells and plant cells, but plant cells also have a cell wall to protect their cells. The cell membrane and cell walls are the outer boundaries of cells.
What is the structure of a plasma membrane and what is the role of their hydrophilic heads?
That is the structure of plasma membrane adjectent or near the secondary cell wall in a cells. It's a living outermost boundary of all the cells.
What is a semi-permeable membrane that forms a boundary between the cell and the external environment?
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that forms a boundary between the cell and the external environment. The vacuole is the storage area within the cell.
Which cell or cells have a plasma membrane?
ALL CELLS HAVE a plasma membrane
What boundary in plant cells composed is mainly of a fibrous material called cellulose?
le plasma membrane

What is the outermost component of all cells?
The outermost living part of a cell is the cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what comes into the cell and what goes out of the cell. It is composed of a double layer of phospholipids and proteins.
Do all living things have cell walls as outer boundary?
yes ------------------- Actually, that is incorrect. Most plant cells have cell walls as a distinct type of structure. Other cells including bacteria and animal cells have a cell membrane or a plasma membrane as their outer boundary.
