Cell membrane is selective permeable. This means that it
Answered by admin @
Cell membrane is selective permeable. This means that it allow only selected molecules or ions to pass through it.
Explanation:
- Cell membrane is found in all the cells including micro organisms, plant cells and animal cells.
- The other names of cell membrane are plasma membrane/cytoplasmic membrane.
- It is the outer layer of the animal cells and micro organisms.
- In plant cells, it is present beneath the cell wall.
- It separates the cellular components from the external environment.
- It is mostly made of proteins and phospho lipids.
- It protects the cell organelles and gives shape to the cells.
- It is called selectively permeable membrane because, it allows only few or particular molecules to pass into the cell and come out from the cell either by active/passive transport mechanisms.
