1. What is the use of glycolipids?

  • Maintains the stability and fluidity of the bi-layer when the temperature fluctuates
  • have a carbohydrate attached and is used for cell signaling, adhesion and cell surface antigens
  • Channel proteins allow larger molecules and ions through, carrier proteins actively transport things in and out of the cell

2. What are the use of proteins in the plasma cell membrane?

  • have a carbohydrate attached and is used for cell signaling, adhesion and cell surface antigens
  • Channel proteins allow larger molecules and ions through, carrier proteins actively transport things in and out of the cell
  • Maintains the stability and fluidity of the bi-layer when the temperature fluctuates

3. What is not a function of the membrane?

  • Membranes produce different compartments inside cells
  • Produce proteins for repair
  • Cell recognition and signalling (such as electrical signals)
  • Regulate transport in and out of cell
