The cell membrane is essentially the wall around your house. In addition to giving shape to the cell, the selectively-permeable nature of the cell membrane allows the cell to determine what chemical compounds are let in and out. This helps to keep out potentially toxic compounds.
What else can I help you with?
What is the outer layer of a cell?
The outer layer of a cell is the cell membrane or plasma membrane
All living material of an animal cell is enclosed in a flexible what?
protoplasm is enclosed in a skin like cell
What controls substances that enter and leave the cell?
IT depends on what cell. In the plant cell it is the cell wall and the cell membrane. But in the animal cell it is only the cell membrane.
What is the outer layer in animal cells called?
the cell membrane. It is a protein mosaic this is hydrophobic on both sides and hydrophllic in the center.
Describe how the contents of a cell are protected from the cell's environment?
Most cells are to small to be seen with the naked eye.some organisms are made up of trillions of cells
Does the elodea plant have a cell membrane?
All plants have a cell membrane as it is vital for survival since it regulates what enters and leaves our cells.
What part of the cell is most important in maintaining homeostasis?
The cell membrane is the most important in maintaining homeostasis. This is because the cell membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell.
What will the cell membrane will absorb?
The cell membrane will selectively absorb nutrients, water, and other molecules needed for the cell's function and survival. It also plays a role in regulating the intake of substances into the cell and expelling waste products out of the cell.
Why is it important for the cell membrane to be a selectivly premeable?
It is important because, if the cell membrane was not selectivly permable, we would not be able to do the things today.
How is the movement of materials across the cell membrane related to the survival of the organism?
its your mama :p
The membrane surround and protect the cell?
The membrane is composed of a lipid bilayer that surrounds the cell, providing a barrier between the internal and external environment. It controls the entry and exit of molecules, allowing the cell to maintain internal conditions necessary for survival. Additionally, the membrane contains proteins that play a role in cell communication, adhesion, and transport.
Do some bacteria not have a plasma membrane?
All bacteria have a plasma membrane, which is a semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cell and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cell. The plasma membrane is essential for bacterial survival and function.
How the cell membrane is important to the health of a cell?
The fat on the out side
What cell structure is important in homeostasis?
It's the plasma membrane. This is because it acts like a gate regulating what can enter and leave the cell. If the plasma membrane did not exist the cell would die because it might take in something that could kill it.
How is mechanism important to cell survival?
rrr
What is important for a cells survival?
a host cell
Phospholipids are important components of what?
Cell membrane
