Question

The fluid nature of the membrane indicates

• A. Cell growth
• B. Cell division
• C. Endocytosis
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of the above

Plasma membrane or cell membrane is the outer covering of all the cells and made up of phospholipid bilayer structure with embedded proteins. The degree of fluidity of the membrane is determined by the lipid content of the membrane. The fluid nature of the membrane indicates function of cell growth, division and endocytosis. The plasma membrane regulates the entry and exit of the cell. Many molecules cross the cell membrane by diffusion and osmosis. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
