Membrane proteins are key components of a typical cell membrane. Explain the importance of the proteins inside membranes to the cell membrane itself, and overall life. Include a diagram that illustrates. Your labelled diagram needs to show two different types of transport proteins embedded within a typical cell membrane. 1.

Each compartment of the endomembrane system of a cell is connected to the plasma membrane. Create a simple diagram of a cell including the RER, Golgi apparatus, vesicle, and the plasma membrane. Starting with the RER, use two different colors to represent the inner and outer halves of the bilayer for each of these membranes. What do you observe?

the cell membrane is made of a phospholipid bilayer what does the phopholipid bilayer provide for the cell
Cholesterol can be packaged into droplets using LDL (low density lipoprotein). Cells that need to take in cholesterol from the LDL droplets have a protein on their membrane called an LDL receptor.This protein binds to the LDL droplet and brings the cholesterol into the cell by forming a vesicle around it.Which method of membrane transport is involved in this process? 1.Diffusion2.Endocytosis3.Exocytosis4.Osmosis
Note that the number of transport proteins (pores) on a cell and their size can help the cell to control which kinds of molecules are inside and in what quantities.
