... 2. Because the cell is filled with salts, sugars, proteins, and other molecules, it will almost always be hypertonic to fresh water. 3. If so, the osmotic pressure should produce a net movement of water into the cell. As a result, the volume of the cell will increase until the cell becomes swollen o ...

... In a resting membrane, more channels are open to K+ than Na+. Therefore, more K+ diffuses out of the cell than the amount of Na+ that is being diffused into the cell. The more rapid the diffusion of K+ outside makes the outside more positive than the inside of the cell. Therefore, the cell loses a ...

Extracellular matrix



In biology, the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a collection of extracellular molecules secreted by cells that provides structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells. Because multicellularity evolved independently in different multicellular lineages, the composition of ECM varies between multicellular structures; however, cell adhesion, cell-to-cell communication and differentiation are common functions of the ECM.The animal extracellular matrix includes the interstitial matrix and the basement membrane. Interstitial matrix is present between various animal cells (i.e., in the intercellular spaces). Gels of polysaccharides and fibrous proteins fill the interstitial space and act as a compression buffer against the stress placed on the ECM. Basement membranes are sheet-like depositions of ECM on which various epithelial cells rest.The plant ECM includes cell wall components, like cellulose, in addition to more complex signaling molecules. Some single-celled organisms adopt multicelluar biofilms in which the cells are embedded in an ECM composed primarily of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS).
