1. Some substances passes through small holes in the surface cell membrane. This is called diffusion and does not require cell to expend energy.In this way the passive transport occur if the cell doo not expend any energy. 2.In active transport,the particles move across the cell membrane from slower concentration to higher concentration . Active transport is the energy requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes uphill against a gradient.This process uses the energy of ATP. 3. Endocytosis and Exocytosis are important mechanisms for bringing substances into and out of a cell.The vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane ,causing the contents of the vesicles to spill outside the cell.

Which type of lipid is a major component of the cell membrane

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Phospholipids

Explanation:

Phospholipids are a particular kind of lipid (an oil) that forms a two-layered surface that surrounds and protects all living cells. The phosphates are essential to forming this bilayered structure. This membrane has a semipermeable function that selectively allows some elements and molecules to go in or out of the cell and thus helps maintain the cell in equilibrium.

Why are cells of different shapes and sizes? Give suitable examples.
