Exocytosis and Endocytosis are the process which help cells to release or take up large molecules or material respectively in a controlled mechanism by forming membrane enclosed vacuoles or vesicles…

Membrane potential is the potential difference across the plasma membrane. Membrane potential is essential to spread electrical signals called nerve impulses across every cell’s plasma membrane. Neurons communicate through changes…

Membrane transport mechanism is the movements of solutes into the cell are mediated and regulated through the action of specific transport proteins that are present on the cell membrane. The…

The important role of lipid bilayer helps in stabilizing the membrane structure, but leaves it flexible, not rigid.At the same time, the fatty acids of the phospholipids make the hydrophobic…

Living cells have a cell membrane. Also termed as plasma or biological membranes. Cell membranes are double lipid layers that also include membrane proteins. Cell membranes helps to protect the…
