What is a cell surrounded by a protective covering called?
A cell surrounded by a protective covering is called a "cell membrane" or "plasma membrane." This semi-permeable membrane controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell, helping to maintain homeostasis. In addition to the cell membrane, some cells, like plant cells and bacteria, also have a rigid outer layer known as the cell wall that provides extra protection and support.
What do you call the protective layer external to the plasma membrane of plant cells?
Cell wall
What is every plant and animal cell surrounded by?
Every plant and animal cell is surrounded by a cell membrane. Plant cells have both a cell membrane and a cell wall because they can create there own food through photosynthesis. Animal cells have to absorb food, so they cant have a cell wall.
Is a plant cell surrounded by a membrane?
Yes
What is a protective layer that covers a cell's surface and acts as a barrier?
For most cells, it is the cell membrane. Cells have a plasma membrane that is very selectively permeable i.e, will allow entry of substances that are necessary for the cell functioning. In case of an egg cell, it is surrounded by follicular cells. It provides protection from various acidic conditions. For a plant cell, the cell wall serves as a barrier.
What is the protective outer layer of both animal and plant cells?
The protective outer layer of both animal and plant cells is called the cell membrane. It regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell, maintaining the cell's internal environment and protecting it from external threats.
Where is the cell membrane in an animal cell?
As you can see below in a diagram of an animal cell, the cell membrane is the outer layer of the cell and lines the cytoplasm. In a plant cell, the membrane lines the cytoplasm however this time is surrounded by the cell wall.
What is the protective layer that covers the surface of a plant to prevent water loss?
The protective layer that covers the surface of a plant to prevent water loss is called the cuticle.
What thick layer surrounds a plant cell?
the plants protective layer dummy
The what surrounds the cell?
In animal cell it is surrounded by cell membrane. In plant cell it is surrounded by cell wall.
The protective covering on the outside of the cell is called the?
For plant cells, they have a cell membrane and covering the cell membrane is a cell wall. The cell wall is for the structure of the plant. For animal cells, they just have a cell membrane.
In science what gives a protective layer that gives the shape of a plant to the plant cells.One of your answers should be cell (plasma) membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, vacuole, chloroplasts, cell wall, mitochondria, or ribosomes?
The cell wall.
