What else can I help you with?
What lipid molecule makes up 50 percent of the cell membranes?
A phospholipid bilayer makes up most of the cell membrane
What molecule makes up the majority of a cell?
Water makes up the majority of a cell, typically around 70-90% of the cell's mass.
What type of molecule is embedded in cell membranes?
Proteins are often found embedded in the cell membrane. These proteins are called transmembrane or inter-membrane proteins.Cholesterol molecules are also found embedded in the hydrophobic interior of the cell membrane in many species
What is it called when a part of a cell membrane closes around a molecule to allow the molecule to enter the cell?
This is called endocytosis.
What molecule makes up the bulk of a cell's membrane?
Phospholipids make up the bulk of a cell's membrane. They have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and two hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails, which form a lipid bilayer that provides the structure and integrity of the cell membrane.
What makes the majority of the cell membrane?
phospholipids
Which organic molecule is used to build the majority of the cell membrane?
Phospholipids.
What lipid molecule makes up 50 percent of the cell membranes?
A phospholipid bilayer makes up most of the cell membrane
What molecule makes up the majority of a cell?
Water makes up the majority of a cell, typically around 70-90% of the cell's mass.
What molecule does cell membrane contain?
The cell membrane contains phospholipids.
What is the primary molecule of the cell membrane?
The primary molecule of the cell membrane is a phospholipid. Phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and a hydrophobic (water-repelling) tail, which allows them to form a double layer in the cell membrane called the phospholipid bilayer.
What is the molecule that makes up a majority of a cell?
The two organic molecules that make up the majority of the cell are proteins and lipids. Others include phospholipids and fatty acids.
What type of molecule is embedded in cell membranes?
Proteins are often found embedded in the cell membrane. These proteins are called transmembrane or inter-membrane proteins.Cholesterol molecules are also found embedded in the hydrophobic interior of the cell membrane in many species
What is it called when a cell membrane closes around a molecule to allow the molecule to enter the cell?
selectively permiable membrane (you might want to double check that though...)
Which molecule would be unable to diffuse through a cell membrane?
A molecule that is too large or charged would be unable to diffuse through a cell membrane.
What is it called when a part of a cell membrane closes around a molecule to allow the molecule to enter the cell?
This is called endocytosis.
How does cell move molecule that is too large for transport proteins?
The cell membrane folds around the molecule.
