Why are membranes a advantage to a cell?

Answer 1

The membrane allows the cell to keep all its resources and materials together. Otherwise everything would drift away.

The cell membrane is permeable to some materials, allowing them to pass through into the cell without energy expenditure.

Similarly the membrane is impermeable to some materials. This allows the cell to do things like create a charge or concentration gradient by using active transport of the material. This is how cells maintain their Na and K concentrations which is very important to cell function.

Answer 2

One reason why folded membranes are an advantage to a cell is because they facilitate a more efficient cell process. Another reason is that folded membranes allow for interconnected compartments.

Answer 3

It is an advantage because it prevents viruses from getting inside the cell and killing it.

Answer 4

The cell has a greater level of structural support.

Answer 5

Cell membrane allows some substances to pass into the cell and blocking others

Answer 6

control the movement of substances in and out of the cell

have fun on study island!!

Answer 7

it makes it semi permeable so that it can eaisly get materials and get rid of waste

Answer 8

It increases surface area

Answer 9

It protects the membrane.
