What's the difference between human skin and the cell membrane

Biology
2 answers:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Read explanation

Explanation: there’s actually no similarity at all. A cell membrane is made of phospholipids, globular proteins, glycolipids, glycoproteins, and cholesterol, and has passages that serve explicitly for passive and active transport of materials through it.

The skin is made of cells and dead keratin and serves as much as possible to prevent most substances from moving through it. It’s “designed” for toughness and distensibility, not for selective permeability.

All in all, the difference is that a cell membrane is explicitly and only for the passing and transport of materials through it, and the skin in the skin is made to be tough and durable, almost the opposite of a cell membrane.

Identify and explain three major issues that cut across psychology
oee [108]
The three major issues that cut across psychology are stability versus change, rationality versus irrationality and nature-nurture issue.
Stability versus change deals with the issue of whether human beings change as they grow older or they remain essentially the same.
Rational versus irrationality illustrates the disparity between a human's mind ability to perceive and interpret correctly or incorrectly.
Nature - nurture issue centered on the relative contribution of genetic inheritance and environmental factors to human development.
