There are many different processes that are controlled by the plasma membrane aka as the cell membrane.

  • Selective Permeable -- this means that only certain things will be allowed to enter or to leave the cell membrane.
  • Active transport -- this process is where ATP is required. An example of this type of transport is when there is particles that are too large to passively go through the membrane will need to be carried by glucose, and through protein carriers.
  • Passive transport -- this is where no actual ATP is required, it flows quite freely through the membrane. One example of this type is diffusion.

Why are cellular transport and cellular communication factors that limit cell size?

The cellular transport and cellular communication factor that limit the cell size because all the materials that go in and out of a cell must pass through the plasma membrane.

The plasma membrance of a cell consists of?

The plasma membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer that contains proteins. There are four types of proteins in the plasma membrane - structural protein, receptor protein, transport protein and glycoprotien.


When a cell grows its plasma membrane expands does it involve exocytosis or endocytosis please explain?

I believe it's endocytosis, Because the cell takes in the food or the (transport) vesicles to grow " by the three types of endocytosis: Phagocytosis " Cellular eating " Pinocytosis " Cellular drinking " and " Receptor-mediated endocytosis " And they will fuse with the plasma membrane and become part of it, so accordingly, the plasma membrane is expanding.

What makes up a selectively permeable membrane?

Plasma membrane filters what the cell needs and keeps out what will harm it. this property is called selective permeability.
