Answer:
The correct answer is - no.
Explanation:
Carbohydrates are made up of thee elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen so if the carbohydrate is completely broken down it will release these elements.
Lipids are made up of similar elements as glucose however, they also contain sulfur and phosphorus. Similarly for proteins and nucleic acid nitrogen, nitrogen sulfur, and selenium other than the elements released by glucose.
Thus, the correct answer would be - no.
Answer: Large molecules and wastes move through the membrane through forms of active transport- endocytosis and exocytosis.
Explanation:
Molecules are moved across the cell membrane via different mechanisms like diffusion, facilitated diffusion and passive transport; however, some very large molecules require specialized types of active transport to cross over- these are endocytosis and exocytosis.
During endocytosis large molecules cells and cell fragments moved across the plasma membrane through a process of <em>invagination;</em> piece of the external cell membrane falls into itself and forms a small pocket that surrounds the target molecule this breaks off from the membrane to form an intracellular vesicle. Different methods of endocytosis such as <em>phagocytosis, pinocytosis </em>and receptor-mediated <em>endocytosis</em>, take in cells, water and targeted substances respectively.
Like endocytosis, the particles (signal proteins, neurotransmitters and waste material) are surrounded by a phospholipid membrane. However, in exocytosis, this membrane is formed in the cytoplasm, and merges with the plasma membrane’s interior in a process <em>opposite to </em>endocytosis; material is removed from the cell and exported into the cell’s exterior called the extracellular space.
