Answer the Guide Question: a) Each cell in an organism has all of the basic parts. Each has a function that benefits the other cells, how might the presence of different cell structures in plant and animal help them perform their functions as an organism. Explain. b) Why is the cell membrane considered as the guard of the cell? c) Why is the lysosome considered as the suicide bag of the cell?
Which of the following is NOT a function of membrane-embedded proteins?Choose one:A. Membrane-embedded proteins can form the base of structures that extend out of the cell (such as flagella and pili).B. Membrane-embedded proteins can store important inheritable information that is needed by the cell.C. Membrane-embedded proteins can serve as receptors that detect specific environmental conditions.D. Membrane-embedded proteins can import or export specific molecules through the membrane.
