Cell Roles State Membranes Surface Partially Permeable Barrier

Cell membranes are partially permeable, involved in cell signaling, anchoring the cytoskeleton, cell-cell recognition, and facilitating endocytosis and exocytosis.

Las membranas celulares son parcialmente permeables, actúan en la señalización celular, anclan el citoesqueleto, participan en el reconocimiento celular y son esenciales para la endocitosis y exocitosis.

Front State 5/6 roles of membranes within cells and at the surface of cells.
Back Roles of membranes:
  • Partially permeable barrier that only allows selective substances to pass thru (compartmentalisation)
  • It is necessary for cell signaling
  • It is required for anchoring the cytoskeletal framework of the cell
  • It is involved in cell to cell recognition
  • Endocytosis and exocytosis
