Q

what can go through the cell membrane and how?

A

The structure of the lipid bilayer allows small, uncharged substances such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, and hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, to pass through the cell membrane, down their concentration gradient, by simple diffusion.

bulk transport

73
Q

role of the cell membrane

A

The plasma membrane, or the cell membrane, provides protection for a cell. It also provides a fixed environment inside the cell, and that membrane has several different functions. One is to transport nutrients into the cell and also to transport toxic substances out of the cell.

Structural. The largest class of proteins are structural proteins. Storage. Storage proteins house critical elements that your cells need.

Hormonal. Hormonal proteins act as chemical messengers.

Enzyme. Enzymes serve as biological catalysts needed for chemical reactions.

Immunoglobulins.
