What else can I help you with?
What type of molecules cannot enter the cell?
polar molecules are repelled by the cells electrical charge.
Large molecules are surrounded by the cell membrane and enter the cell?
Large molecules can enter cells through processes like endocytosis, where the cell membrane surrounds the molecule and engulfs it in a vesicle. This allows large molecules to be transported into the cell without crossing the lipid bilayer of the membrane.
What selects which molecules enter the cell?
The cell membrane selectively allows molecules to enter the cell through various processes such as passive diffusion, active transport, and facilitated diffusion. Selective permeability is maintained by membrane proteins that act as channels, carriers, or pumps to regulate the passage of specific molecules based on size, charge, and concentration gradients.
What molecule enter the cell?
Molecules that enter the cell can vary widely, but common examples include glucose, amino acids, and ions like sodium and potassium. These molecules typically enter through specific transport proteins or channels in the cell membrane. Additionally, larger molecules or particles can enter via endocytosis, a process where the cell membrane engulfs them to form vesicles. Overall, the transport mechanisms depend on the molecule's size, charge, and polarity.
Cell membranes usually allow what substances to enter a cell?
Cell membranes usually allow water, gases (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide), and small uncharged molecules to enter a cell. Larger molecules or charged ions may require specific transport proteins or channels to cross the membrane.
How do fatty acid molecules differ from amino acid molecule?
amino acid molecules are water soluble meaning they cannot enter the cell. Fatty acid molecules CAN enter the cell.
How does a cell allow small molecules enter and exit?
"The cell membrane has openings in it." (PLATO) (:
What cell organelle has pores that allow certain molecules to leave and enter it?
Cell membrane

What kind of blood vessels allow substances to enter and leave the blood so easily around the cells?
Capillaries, which are only one cell thick. The walls are semipermeable to the cell membranes in the body and are so narrow that red blood cells must pass through in a line, one behind the other. Oxygen and nutrients diffuse from the capillary to the body cells at the arterial end of the capillary while CO2 and other metabolic wastes enter the capillary at the venous end, because of diffusion gradients between the cell and the plasma and cells in the capillary.
What selects which molecules enter the cell?
The cell membrane selectively allows molecules to enter the cell through various processes such as passive diffusion, active transport, and facilitated diffusion. Selective permeability is maintained by membrane proteins that act as channels, carriers, or pumps to regulate the passage of specific molecules based on size, charge, and concentration gradients.
As the concentration of molecules outside a cell increases more molecules will enter the cell?
Yes, this process is known as osmosis. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration (outside the cell) to an area of high solute concentration (inside the cell) to balance the concentration levels. This causes more molecules to enter the cell as the concentration difference increases.
Cell membranes usually allow what substances to enter a cell?
Cell membranes usually allow water, gases (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide), and small uncharged molecules to enter a cell. Larger molecules or charged ions may require specific transport proteins or channels to cross the membrane.
From what does capillary cell wall receives blood?
The capillary cell wall receives blood from the interstitial fluid.
What is it called when part of a cell membrane closes around a molecule to allow the molecules to enter the cell?
Endocytosis
What is the function of a cell selectively cells?
It allows some molecules to enter the cell and blocks entry to others
