If the plasma membrane was permeable, but not selectively permeable, how would that affect the cell?

Biology
1 answer:
Lelechka [254]3 years ago

Answer:

It would most likely kill the cell.

Explanation:

If a cell's membrane is fully permeable (not semi-permeable) then substances that are harmful to the cell are more than likely to enter it at one point or another, which can pretty much end up killing it.

In short, the semi-permeable membrane is there to ensure that only the useful stuff gets in and that the bad stuff stays out.

Cancer cells are different because they don't enter the G - 0 phase and they are likely to do which of the following Your answer
Allisa [31]

Answer:

c) repeat the cell cycle continuously

Explanation:

Cell division is a normal phenomenon for all cells as this is the way the cell reproduces and gets repaired in living organisms. However, some cells, due to mutation, keeps dividing and proliferating to form tumours. These cells are called CANCER cells. A normal cell undergoes cellular repair at certain checkpoints of the cell cycle. The checkpoints are necessary to determine a faulty cell and stop its division.

However, cancerous cells do not undergo any repair, which is why they do not enter the G0 phase as mentioned in the question. They keep on dividing out of control without death by repeating the cell cycle continuously.
