The molecule is very large. How will it be transported into the cell?arrow_forwardA cell that is missing this structure would not have a rigid structural support outside of its plasma membrane and would not be protected from exploding when placed in water. Name the structure and tell why. Then state which type of cell(s) have this structure.arrow_forward

Explain.arrow_forward
- Secretory vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release their contents to the outside of the cell. In this process, the membrane of the secretory vesicle becomes part of the cell membrane because small pieces of the membrane are continually added to the cell membrane, one would expect the cell membrane to become larger and larger as secretion continues. The cell membrane stays the same size, however. Explain how this happens.arrow_forwardGive one example of endocytosis and explain why this is the only way the cell could take in these specific materials?arrow_forwardOrganelles compartmentalize a cell, much as a department store displays related items together. What advantage does such compartmentalization offer a large cell? Cite two examples of organelles and the activities they compartmentalize.arrow_forward
