What else can I help you with?
What is the primary molecule of the cell membrane?
The primary molecule of the cell membrane is a phospholipid. Phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and a hydrophobic (water-repelling) tail, which allows them to form a double layer in the cell membrane called the phospholipid bilayer.
What part of the cell is the outer part of an animal cell?
The outermost structure of an animal cell is the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the membrane separating the interior of the cell from the outside environment. It is made up of proteins and lipids.
The cell membrane is composed of two layers?
The lipid bilayer makes up the membrane of a cell. The lipid bilayer consists of opposing phospholipids, where the polar ends of both the top layer and the bottom layer of phospholipids face opposite directions.
What component of the plasma membrane forms most of the cell's outer boundary?
the phospholipids. by weight it is half protein and half lipid
Is the cell membrane made up of lipids proteins and nucleic acid?
The cell membrane is primarily composed of lipids, specifically phospholipids. Proteins are also present in the membrane, serving various functions such as transport and cell signaling. Nucleic acids are typically found in the cell's nucleus and are not major components of the cell membrane.
What makes up the surface area of a cell?
The cell membrane.
What part of the cell makes up the membrane?
Cholesterol
What makes up most of a cell's membrane's?
Phospholipids is what makes up cell membranes. These are molecules with a polar head composed of a phosphate.
What lipid molecule makes up 50 percent of the cell membranes?
A phospholipid bilayer makes up most of the cell membrane
What type of macromolecule makes up most of the membrane structure?
What is the type of macromolecule that makes up most of the membrane structure?
Double layered sheet that makes up cell membrane?
phospholipids
What chemical structure makes up cell membrane?
phospholipid bilayer
Which type of membrane surrounds a cell?
this is the cell membrane made primarily of lipid molecules with proteins incorporated into it that aid in transport of molecules across the membrane
Is cell membane a plant cell or a animal cell?
A Cell Membrane Is Both. It is What All The Components Within A Cell That Makes Up A Cell Membrane such as the cytoplasm, nucleus, vacuole, cell wall etc. a cell membrane is both animal and plant cell.
Whattype of bilayer makes up most of the cell membrane?
lipid bilayer
What substance make up the outside boundary of a cell that does not have a cell wall?
The cell membrane makes the boundary of the cell. It is a lipid bilayer.
What makes up the outside of the cell?
Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure.
