Answer: heres the 3 main functions.
Explanation:
membranes have three primary functions 1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell 2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the cell and the outside environment and 3) they separate vital but incompatible metabolic processes conducted within organelles.
Answer:
They can cause the deprivation of nutrients, fluids, and metabolites. this may also cause pathological effects in their hosts such as pathogenic effects.
Answer:c. Steroids/cholesterols and phospholipids
Explanation:
The cell membrane structure exhibit a fluid mosaic model due to the presence of two types of membrane lipids these are phospholipids and sterols like steroids/cholesterols.
A phospholipid is a kind of lipid that is made up of glycerol, two fatty acids in tail and a head group associated with the head group. The biological membrane forms two layers of phospholipids with their tails that points inwards and the arrangement is called as the phospholipid bilayer.
The cholesterol is the another membrane lipid in the cell membrane. It is composed of fused carbon rings present along the side of phospholipids.
