What type of molecule can easily diffuse through the plasma membrane without any help? Why?

Biology
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago

Water diffusion is called osmosis. Oxygen is a small molecule and it's nonpolar, so it easily passes through a cell membrane. Carbon dioxide, the byproduct of cell respiration, is small enough to readily diffuse out of a cell. Small uncharged lipid molecules can pass through the lipid innards of the membrane.

I'm guessing here but, some advantages are, embryonic stem cells are very effective at repairing damaged tissues, but they are difficult to obtain, and either have to be obtained from umbillical chords of babies, or from fertilized embryos from a laboratory.  So I am guessing they would be expensive/difficult to source because you would either have to collect umbillical chords from babies, or have to purchase eggs from women, and they are ethically questionable to use because you are essentially making potentially viable embryos and then killing them.  Hope this helps.

Why is it important that the phospholipid bilayer be both hydrophobic and hydrophilic?
Vesnalui [34]

It is important that the phospholipid bilayer is both hydrophobic in the surface and hydrophilic inside to control and manage the incoming organic compounds mainly water from exceeding the needed amount or destablizing the concentration established by the cells.

Hydrophilic is a characteristic of an object which is attracted to water or can synthesize with water. In contrast to hydrophobic like fats, oils and lipis which has a strong aversion and dislike to water molecules.

Transmembrane proteins are found in the plasma membrane. Hydrophilicregions are embedded within the membrane, and Hydrophobic regions project from both surfaces of the bilayer. 

Approximately 20-80% of the cell membrane is composed of lipids, the rest, is made up of protein. The lipid layer of the membrane gives it flexible and permeable characteristic. While the protein part assists in transport of molecules it needs to survive.
