What molecules make up the bi layer of a cell membrane?

Phospholipids lay to the foundation. They are type of lipids.


What two make up the cell membrane?

The lipid bilayer makes up the membrane of a cell. The lipid bilayer consists of opposing phospholipids, where the polar ends of both the top layer and the bottom layer of phospholipids face opposite directions.


What is the outer layer of a cell membrane or wall?

Both! The kind of outer layer depends on the type of cell - (animal or plant). A plant cell has a cell wall but the animal cell has a cell membrane. The animal cell does not have a cell wall because, a cell wall would be more hard and "strict." The animal cell needs to be more flexible and "loose."I hope this truly helps you with your homework, worksheets, notes, etc.Your truly,Homework helper - Teacher for 8th grade


What 2 thing make up the cell membrane?

The cell membrane is primarily composed of lipids (such as phospholipids) and proteins. These two components work together to control the passage of substances in and out of the cell, maintain cell structure, and facilitate cell communication.


What is the outermost component of all cells?

The outermost living part of a cell is the cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what comes into the cell and what goes out of the cell. It is composed of a double layer of phospholipids and proteins.


How are lipids used in plants?

Plants need lipids/fats to help make up the double layer of the cell membrane.


What is made of double layer fats in a cell?

The double layer fats in a cell are known as phospholipids, which make up the cell membrane. This lipid bilayer acts as a barrier that separates the internal environment of the cell from its external surroundings. The phospholipid bilayer also helps regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell.


What is the key structural element of a cell membrane?

The primary structural component of a cell membrane is the phospholid layers. This is mainly made of proteins which facilitate various cell activities.


Why don't cork cells have cell membranes?

Cork cells do have cell membranes. The cell membrane is a fundamental structure present in all living cells, including cork cells. The unique properties of cork cells that make them suitable for cork production come from the suberin layer outside the cell membrane.


What three parts make the egg a cell?

An egg is a cell itself, consisting of three main parts: the cell membrane (outer layer that encloses the cell), cytoplasm (gel-like substance inside the cell), and the nucleus (contains genetic material).


What make up the membrane cell?

A double layer phospholipids, glycolipids and cholesterol various transport proteins and water.


What are the ten layers of the retina?

Inner limiting membrane - Müller cell footplatesNerve fiber layer - axons of the ganglion cell nucleiGanglion cell layer - contains nuclei of ganglion cells, the axons of which become the optic nerve fibers for messages.Inner plexiform layer - contains the synapse between the bipolar cell axons and the dendrites of the ganglion and amacrine cells.Inner nuclear layer - contains the nuclei and surrounding cell bodies (perikarya) of the bipolar cells.Outer plexiform layer - projections of rods and cones ending in the rod spherule and cone pedicle, respectively. These make synapses with dendrites of bipolar In the macular region, this is known as the Fiber layer of Henle.Outer nuclear layer - cell bodies of rods and conesExternal limiting membrane - layer that separates the inner segment portions of the photoreceptors from their cell nucleusPhotoreceptor layer - rods/conesRetinal pigment epithelium - single layer of cuboidal cells
