Explanation:

The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is a double layer of lipids and proteins that surrounds a cell and separates the cytoplasm (the contents of the cell) from its surrounding environment. It is selectively permeable, which means that it only lets certain molecules enter and exit

The primary function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells.

the cell membrane regulates the flow of any material in or out of the cell. and the substance has to pass through the cell membrane.

it's like a bag containing objects, except that these are much much smaller, and lighter!

What is the chromosomes will go into each gamete
Nat2105 [25]
<span>Each parent cell has the full 46 chromosomes, but during the process of meiosis, the cells are split to produce daughter cells with just the base 23. If the cells did not split and reduce the number of chromosomes, the new individual would either not survive due to having 92 chromosomes or be severely disabled. The gametes produced by a female are larger than those produced by males. This is referred to as heterogamy.</span>

Explanation:

1. Barr body is a drumstick-like structure of dense, coiled chromatin that appears normally in female's buccal cells and neutrophils. It represents the inactive X-chromosome (Females have two X-chromosomes. Only one is active.)

2. Liver cells are somatic, not sex cells and are thus diploid.
