During binary fission of prokaryotes both the original and the duplicated chromosomes attach to what before the cell divides in half?
The original and duplicated chromosomes attach to the cell membrane or the plasma membrane before the cell divides in half during binary fission in prokaryotes. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.
Function of peripheral proteins?
Peripheral membrane proteins are proteins that adhere only temporarily to the biological membrane with which they are associated. Peripheral proteins are not bonded as strongly to the membrane. They may just sit on the surface of the membrane, anchored with a few hydrogen (H) bonds.
Hormones attach to plasma membrane proteins called?
Hormones attach to plasma membrane proteins called receptors. These receptors can trigger signaling pathways within the cell when activated by the hormone binding.
What is the function of the peripheral protein?
Peripheral membrane proteins are proteins that adhere only temporarily to the biological membrane with which they are associated. These molecules attach to integral membrane proteins, or penetrate the peripheral regions of the lipid bilayer. The regulatory protein subunits of many ion channels and transmembrane receptors, for example, may be defined as peripheral membrane proteins. In contrast to integral membrane proteins, peripheral membrane proteins tend to collect in the water-soluble component, or fraction, of all the proteins extracted during a protein purification procedure. Proteins with GPI anchors are an exception to this rule and can have purification properties similar to those of integral membrane proteins.
What property of a virus determines its attachment to a host cell membrane?
The specific viral proteins on the surface of the virus determine its attachment to host cell membrane receptors. These proteins bind to complementary host cell receptors, allowing the virus to attach and enter the host cell.
What is the ability of certain hormones to attach to a cell determined by?
receptor molecules in the cell membrane
What allows prokaryotic cells to attach to other cells?
cell membrane
The ability of certain hormones to attach to a cell is primarily determined by the?
receptor molecules in the cell membrane
What is an animal Cell membrane for?
The Plasma Membrane is often called "selectively permeable" because it has phospholipid heads that stick out and attach to materials that the cell needs and puts them into the cell.
Is it true that proteins at the inner surface of the plasma membrane attach the membrane to the cell's support structure making the cell rigid?
Your question is unclear, but a cell is supported by the cytoskeleton.
Proteins at the inner surface of the plasma membrane attach the membrane to the cells support structure making the cell rigid?
false
During binary fission of prokaryotes both the original and the duplicated chromosomes attach to what before the cell divides in half?
The original and duplicated chromosomes attach to the cell membrane or the plasma membrane before the cell divides in half during binary fission in prokaryotes. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.
Neurotransmitters attach to what molecules in the cell membrane?
Neurotransmitters attach to specific proteins called receptors on the cell membrane. These receptors are typically ligand-gated ion channels or G protein-coupled receptors that initiate cellular responses when neurotransmitters bind to them.
Is the effect of a neurotransmitter on the muscle cell membrane to modify its ion permeability properties temporarily?
Yes, neurotransmitters can modify the ion permeability of muscle cell membranes temporarily by binding to specific receptors on the cell surface. This binding can lead to changes in membrane potential and the initiation of muscle contraction or relaxation.

Hormones attach to plasma membrane proteins called?
Hormones attach to plasma membrane proteins called receptors. These receptors can trigger signaling pathways within the cell when activated by the hormone binding.
Do proteins at the inner surface of the plasma membrane attach to the membrane to the cells support the structure?
Yes, proteins at the inner surface of the plasma membrane can attach to the cytoskeleton of the cell, providing support and helping to maintain the structure of the membrane. These membrane-associated proteins interact with the cytoskeleton to anchor the membrane in place and facilitate cell shape and movement.
