Cells transport molecules into the cell in many different ways. One method is through endocytosis, shown in the model. In endocy

tosis, the cell brings specific molecules it needs, including fluid, into the cell. Why does the structure of the plasma membrane make this type of transport necessary for fluids?

Answer:

While the heads of the phospholipid structure attract water, the tails are hydrophobic. The model shows how the hydrophilic section folds around the fluid molecules to bring them into the cell so they don’t need to pass through the hydrophobic tails.

Answer:

This is because fluids have a polar nature, so they couldn´t cross the lipidic bilayer that constitutes the plasma membrane

Explanation:

Plasma membranes are contituted by lipid bilayers. These kind of compounds are hidrophobic (they reject water) and don´t permit the freely passage of hidriphilic molecules that can disolve in water, constituing fluids. Because of that cells developed transport mechanism like endocytosis.
