2. Cytoplasm
3. Organelles
Plasma Membrane:
For the exchange, protection and containment of materials in and out of the cell
Cytoplasm

5. And to contain identification markers by the glycoc
Glycocalyx are:
Carbohydrates attached to proteins and lipids (glycoproteins and glycolipids

Cholesterol
Osmosis is:
The movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from higher H20 concentration to a lower H20 concentraition
Osmotic Pressure is:
the pressure that's needed to stop he movement of water across the membrane
Simple Diffusion is:

Facilitated Diffusion is:
when a solute combines with a transporter protein in the membrane
