the fluid mosaic model defines the plasma membrane as a structure composed of multiple components, including phospholipid bilaye
Eva8 [605]

Answer: True

Explanation: The plasma membrane is a membrane the protects the cell and its environment. It regulates what goes inside and what comes out of the cell. .

Plasma membrane as a structure composed of multiple components, including phospholipid bilayer, carbohydrates, and other lipids. The phospholipids possess one head and two tails. The head is basically polar and hydrophilic (water-loving) while the tails are non-polar and hydrophobic (water-fearing).

The plasma membrane is decorated with proteins. Some protiens are extrinsic proteins that run halfway through the membrane, while others are called integral proteins that go entirely through the membrane. The function of these proteins is to serve as channels to allow the molecules to enter and leave the cell.

What role do proteins play in enabling the enormous amount of dna in a eukaryotic cell?
MAVERICK [17]
DNA is condensed by a certain amount just on its own, just by its own interactions within the DNA molecule,..but whne proteins get involved it gets condensed 30000 fold 
<span>what happens is that proteins called histones are like hockey pucks, and DNA wraps around it 1.5 times and then goes to another histone and wraps around that so that it looks like beads on a string (i hope that makes sense, its the only way to describe it) </span>
<span>these histones condense this DNA a lot, and when the histones get methylated then the DNA packs together even closer to get heterochromatin (VERY densely packed DNA)...the theory here is that DNA has a net negative charge due to the phosphate groups in the DNA backbone and doesnt allow the DNA to come together as closely as it could (like charges repel like charges), but when histones are methylated, the negative charge on the DNA is masked by the methyl groups and DNA can come together closer </span>
