What else can I help you with?
Does plasma membrane produce proteins?
No, the plasma membrane does not produce proteins. Proteins are synthesized by ribosomes in the cytoplasm and then transported to the plasma membrane to carry out various functions such as transport, signaling, and cell adhesion.
A plasma membrane is found in which type of cells?
Virtually all cells contain a cell membrane, including plants and animals.
What is the function of the carbohydrates that stick out if the plasma membrane?
The carbohydrates help identify chemical signals and define the characteristics of the cell.
Does the plasma membrane contain glycoproteins?
Yes.
What parts of the plasma membrane are water soluble?
The plasma membrane is made of phospholipids. Phospholipids contain a hydrophillic head group which is considered water soluable. They also contain a hydrophobic tail group whichi s considered lipid soluable

Does plasma membrane contain sugars?
No
Does the plasma membrane contain glycoproteins?
Yes.
What types of macromolecules compose the plasma membrane?
Lipids, Proteins and Carbohydrates

Does plasma membrane contain micro villi?
yes
Is plasma membrane present in animals?
YES.
What are the roles of proteins carbohydrates and cholesterol in the plasma membane?
Apple pie to the square root of the seribrim theory is equal to the roles of protains carbohydrates and cholesterol in the plasma membrane
What do you call the membrane covering a cell?
The cell membrane or plasma membrane in animals. The cell wall in plants.
Which of these materials is not a major component of the plasma membrane?
This membrane is called the fluid mosaic model as it is a mixture of phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins and carbohydrates. It is mainly phospholipids. The proteins sort of float on the surface of the membrane like islands in the sea.Cholesterol is also found in the membrane. It prevents lower temperatures from inhibiting the fluidity of the membrane and prevents higher temperatures from increasing fluidity.
