What else can I help you with?
Why must the cell membrane be selective in its permeability?
this means that it allows some materials, but not all, to cross it, or permeate it.
What helps to allow materials to cross the plasma membrane?
Materials cross the plasma membrane through processes such as simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. These processes involve the movement of substances across the lipid bilayer of the membrane with the help of transport proteins or by utilizing energy to move against a concentration gradient.
What are you considering when you referring to how easily materials can pass through membrane?
What you are considering when you are referring to how easily materials can pass through a membrane is how permeable the cell wall or membrane is.
What is cell membrane permeability?
It is the ability of the membrane to allow ions and/or particles to cross.
What receptor has a ligand that can cross the cell membrane that binds?
Intracellular
What type of membrane allows some but not all materials cross?
A selectively permeable membrane allows SOME but not ALL materials to cross.
What is the definition of impermeable?
A membrane that lets all materials cross is permeable. A membrane that lets nothing cross is impermeable.
How do materials get in and out of the cell?
Some materials cross the cell membrane by diffusion. Some cross through channels. Some bind to receptors and are actively transported.
What is there past tense of cross?
The past tense of "cross" is "crossed."
What is the past tense of the word cross?
The past tense of the word "cross" is "crossed."
Why must the cell membrane be selective in its permeability?
this means that it allows some materials, but not all, to cross it, or permeate it.
Is crossed a verb?
The word crossed in the past tense of the verb to cross. He crossed the street.
What helps to allow materials to cross the plasma membrane?
Materials cross the plasma membrane through processes such as simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. These processes involve the movement of substances across the lipid bilayer of the membrane with the help of transport proteins or by utilizing energy to move against a concentration gradient.
What is a thin sheet of materials that selectively aloows certain molecules to cross but prevents others from crossing?
Semi-permeable membrane
What is the past tense of cross?
Crossed
What is the verb in he crossed the bridge?
The verb in the sentence 'he crossed the bridge' is crossed. The word 'crossed' comes from the verb 'to cross'.
What substance crossed the dialysis membrane?
Cells have methods other than diffusion/osmosis to move materials across the cell membrane, most of which involve membrane proteins and require the use of energy. The cell membrane also performs functions other than controlling the movement of materials into and out of the cell, and the membranes of some specialized cells have very complex functions. So we can see that the cell membrane is a very intricate and important component of the cell.
