In the membrane of a cell channels serve as what?
In the membrane of a cell, channels serve as passageways.
What are the special structures in the cell membrane that allow water and sugar pass through it made of?
These special structures are called protein gates or protein channels. Water is able to diffuse through the cell membrane since it is a small molecule. However, there are channels called aquaporins that allow water to enter the cell. A glucose molecule cannot just diffuse into a cell. There are glucose channels on the surface of the cell membrane that bind glucose molecules and allow them to enter the cell.
What barrier in the cell that is embedded with channels?
The "cell membrane" is the cell that is embedded with channels.
How do structures within cell allow the cell to be specialized?
The structures allow the cell to perform specific functions.
What cell structures are made primarily from phospholipids?
cell membrane

What is the function of the cytoplasm in a eukaryotic cell?
They have membrane-bound structures and prokaryotic are cells that don't have membrane-bound structures.
What barrier in the cell that is embedded with channels?
The "cell membrane" is the cell that is embedded with channels.
What molecules in membrane give them their specific function describe activities of one of these molecules?
Direct activities of the cell give the function of the cell membrane. Globular proteins create narrow passageways or channels. The nucleus directs the cell's functions.
How do structures within cell allow the cell to be specialized?
The structures allow the cell to perform specific functions.
What cell structures are made primarily from phospholipids?
cell membrane
In a cell what function of the cell membrane?
The function of the cell membrane is to control what enters and leaves the cell.
What the function of cell membrane in a cell?
The function of the cell membrane is to control what enters and leaves the cell.
How does the composition of the cell membrane help regulate the movement of substances into and out of the cell?
They pass through channels in the cell membrane.
What is the organelle that regulates what enters or exits the cell is called?
its the cell membrane - not to be confused with the cell wall
What are the special structures in the cell membrane that allow materials such as water and sugar to pass through made o?
membrane proteins act as carriers or channels for the specific movement of various substances in to and out of the cells.
