What cell part provides support for the cell allows gases and water to pass through and provides protection?

The cell wall is the structure that provides support for the cell, allows gases and water to pass through, and provides protection by maintaining the cell's shape and rigidity. It is found in plant cells, bacteria, fungi, and some protists.


What allows water molecules to pass through?

Water molecules are able to pass through cell membranes via specialized proteins called aquaporins. Aquaporins facilitate the movement of water across membranes by creating a channel for water molecules to pass through while preventing other molecules from entering. This selective permeability helps to regulate the flow of water in and out of cells.


Where can phospholipids move and allow water?

freely and allow water and other hydrophylic molecules to pass through into or out of the cell.


What structure regulates the movement of water into and out f a cell?

Cell membrane, specifically aquaporin proteins, regulate the movement of water into and out of the cell through a process called osmosis. These proteins create channels that selectively allow water molecules to pass through, maintaining proper water balance in the cell.


What will happen if distilled water is hypotonic to a red blood cell?

If distilled water is hypotonic to a red blood cell, water will move into the cell through osmosis, causing the cell to swell and potentially burst (lyse) due to the increased pressure inside the cell. Red blood cells do not have a cell wall to protect them from changes in osmotic pressure, so they are particularly susceptible to lysis in hypotonic solutions.

Molecules can pass through the cell membrane of the human cell?

Yes, molecules can pass through the cell membrane of human cells through various mechanisms such as simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, or active transport. The size, polarity, and concentration gradient of the molecule influence how it crosses the cell membrane.
