When food is taken into a cell, the cell membrane plays a crucial role in the process of endocytosis. The cell membrane surrounds the food particles, invaginates, and forms a vesicle called a food vacuole. This process allows the cell to take in nutrients and molecules from the external environment.

Which part of the cell controls what gets in and out of the cell?
This is the cell membrane, the fluid mosaic, or the phospholipid bilayer.All names of the control membrane for in/out traffic of the cell.
What is a function of a cell membrane in all cells?
The cell membrane functions to regulate the flow of substances in and out of the cell, act as a barrier to protect the cell's contents, and communicate with other cells or the environment. Additionally, the cell membrane helps to maintain cell shape and structure.
What is a good slogan for the cell membrane?
1)GO INSANE FOR THE CELL MEMBRANE! 2)I am one but part of two, I can always be found in you 3)Whats in your brain? Why its a cell membrane!
What molecule has an important role in limiting what gets in and out of your cells?
The molecule that plays an important role in limiting what gets in and out of cells is the cell membrane. It is composed of a phospholipid bilayer that acts as a barrier, allowing only certain molecules to pass through. The cell membrane also contains various proteins and channels that further regulate the movement of substances across the membrane.
What part of a cell would be an emergency repair and why?
DNA repair mechanisms are considered as the emergency repair of a cell. This is because DNA is crucial for the cell's function and survival, and any damage can lead to mutations and potentially cell death. Timely repair of damaged DNA helps maintain the integrity of the genetic information and ensures proper functioning of the cell.
When food gets into the cell what do the cell membrane do?
hghjgh
What does a plant cell's membrane do?
A plant cell membrane lines the inside of the cell wall. The membrane allows only certain molecules into the cell depending on the size. It acts as a filter, and allows food and water to enter the cell, and gets rid of wastes and un-necessary nutrients.

Is there a point where cells stop working?
Yes,the cell membrane, or the cell wall, has the job of letting the right food in and out.If a bad germ gets through, it's over for the cell at that instant.

What controls what enters and leaves the cell?
IT depends on what cell. In the plant cell it is the cell wall and the cell membrane. But in the animal cell it is only the cell membrane.
What would happen to the cell membrane when the cell gets bigger?
the membrane stretches and adds more material and subsance so it is able to stretch
What organism gets food by stretching its membrane?
outsidea parasite
What is the roll of the cell membrane?
The cell membrane acts as a protective barrier, regulating the passage of substances in and out of the cell. It also helps maintain the cell's shape and allows for cell communication with the external environment.
Endocytisis and exocytosis are similar?
similar but opposite. endocytosis is the way food and packets of liquids enter a cell. theres specific names pinocytosis is the liquids entering and phagocytosis is the foods entering. exocytosis is the opposite. the stuff that the cell wants to get rid of gets crammed into a vacuole and shoved out the cell. both processes involve the cell membrane. when endocytosis takes place, the food or liquids are covered in a bit've membrane. when exocytosis, the cells 'crap' is placed in a kinda packet surrounded by the same stuff as a cell membrane. so when this packet comes in touch with the membrane, it joins it, flushing all the stuff that is in it. out.
Is cytoplasm needed to make food for a cell?
Yes it makes food from sunlight that the cell gets.
What does the valcuole membrane do?
In a plant cell a vacuole stores water. The membrane allows the passage of water into and out of the cell. The vacuole gets smaller if there is not enough water in the environment because its water is being used in the cell to keep the cell functioning normally.
