Why the cell membrane is described asa fluid mosaic model?
fluid: as the phospholipid bilayer can move sideways freely within the plasma membrane mosaic: the pattern formed by the intrinsic and extrinsic proteins within the plasma membrane ** The molecules are like the tiles of a mosaic but rahter then being embedded in a solid cement-like material, they are embedded in a fluid and can move slightly to allow the passage of materials across the cell membrane and thus into the sytoplasm of the cell.
What is the function of the specific carbohydrates that are attached to the cell membrane?
The function of the specific carbohydrates that are attached to the cell membrane are to provide oxygen membrane. They also provide some fixed energy to various functions of the cell membrane.
What Controls what moves in and out of the cell?
Cell membrane
Which contains the other cell membrane or phospholipid?
the cell membrane
What controls the entering and leaving of a cell?
cell (plasma) membrane
Is the cell membrane a fixed structure?
The cell membrane is an asymmetric phospholipid bilayer and as such it is flexible like an elastic sheet.
What is it called when a cell reference that refers to cells by their fixed position in a worksheet and which remain the same when the formula is copied is referred to as an?
An absolute reference. An absolute cell reference.
What position in a factory is simalar to a cell membrane?
controls what goes in and out of the cell
What is the name of a fixed position on a worksheet?
It can be a cell. If it is a cell that is fixed in a formula so that it does not change when a formula is copied it is an absolute cell. See the related questions below.
When cell references are copied and adjusted for each new position each adjusted cell reference is called a(n) reference?
When cell references are copied and adjusted for each new position, each adjusted cell reference is called a "relative reference." Relative references change based on the position of the cell where they are copied, allowing for dynamic calculations across different cells. This contrasts with absolute references, which remain fixed regardless of where they are copied.
Components of the cell membrane constantly shift. The model describes this characteristic of the cell membrane.?
The fluid mosaic model describes the cell membrane as a fluid structure where lipids and proteins are able to move around and change position. This constant shifting allows the cell membrane to maintain flexibility and adapt to changing conditions.
How does cholesterol contribute to maintaining membrane fluidity?
Cholesterol helps maintain membrane fluidity by preventing the phospholipid molecules in the cell membrane from packing too closely together. This allows the membrane to remain flexible and functional, ensuring proper cell communication and transport of molecules.

Cell membrane
Another name for plasma membrane?
A cell membrane is also known as a plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane. The cell membrane separates the interior of a cell from its outside environment. The main function of a cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings.
What is the thin flexible membrane around all cells?
the cell membrane is as flexible barrier outside of the cell.
