Can you help me with this biology question?

Question

True or false... the structure and properties of the cell wall allow it to be selective and maintain homeostasis.

Answer 1

false thats the membrane

Answer 2

False. The cell membrane is selectively permeable meaning that only things that are able to fit through the cell and belong in the cell can enter it. Homeostasis is when the cell works to maintain the proper balance of nutrients and oxygen inside its self. If an organism cannot maintain homeostasis it will loose control of its chemical reactions and die.

All actions of the cell membrane.

Answer 3

False. It's not the cell wall that does these things. Cell membrane.
Cell membrane is a selectively permeable membrane. It is resposible to take certain molecules in and to remove certain others out, in a selective manner, therefore maintaining the homostatis.

Cell wall cannot act as a 'selectively' permeable membrane, because of its structure. The main function of cell wall would be maintainig the rigidity.

Think of it this way. Animal cells do not have cell walls. Yet they maintain their homostatis, don't they? That's because it's done by cell membrane.

Answer 4

That is false, because the cell wall traps the properties,although the cell but basicamilarities will allow it to maintain homostasis. The cell wall provides support. The cell membrain mostly supports this theory.

Answer 5

Permiability of the cell membrane allows selective passage to maintain a balance. The cell wall supports the cell and it's functions. So it would be false.

Answer 6

False.
The structure and properties of the cell membrane are selective and allow the cell to maintain homeostasis.
The cell wall provides support.

Answer 7

False... that's the cell membrane's job.

Psssst... Listen to the unnamed biology teacher.

Answer 8

true..no wait, after looking it up, it sounds more like that's the cell membranes job, NOT the cell wall.

So therefore this statement is FALSE

Answer 9

True

Answer 10

I am pretty sure its true
