the cell membrane controls what flows in and out of the cell...the cell wall is what supports and protects the cell of all material that is unwanted

Answer 31

so the answers is...........
The function of the cell membrane controls what flows in and out of the cell. The cell wall is what supports and protects the cell of all material that is unwanted.
@Aureyliant is that correct?

Answer 32

@geny55 i dont think @Aureyliant is as smart as he is...dont mean any direspect but i already told you the answer so you wouldnt have to view the tutorial

Answer 33

The cell membrane, also called the plasma membrane, surrounds the cell. The membrane serves as a selective barrier for the cell, meaning that it allows some things to pass into or out of the cell but not others. For example, oxygen and nutrients pass into the cell through the membrane, and waste products pass out of the cell.
Each organelle inside a eukaryotic cell is also surrounded by a membrane. These membranes serve as a selective barrier for the organelles and determine what can enter or leave. Each of these membranes, like the cell membrane, is made up of lipids and contains a variety of proteins.

Answer 34

yes that is correct...you copier and paster

Answer 35
