- 1. Match
Match the following:
Cholesterol
stabilizes and maintains flexibility of cell membrane
Phospholipid bilayer
2 layers; allows small & non-polar molecules to pass through the membrane
Transport or Channel Proteins
regulates what goes in and out of the cell
Plasma or Cell Membrane
allows large and polar molecules to pass through the membrane
Carbohydrates
located outside of the membrane; helps with cell communication and cell-to-cell connections
- 2. Multiple Choice
Which of the following describes the cell membrane?
controls what enters and exits the cell
protects and provide structure to the cell
provides energy for the cell
transports proteins and lipids throughout the cell
helps the cell to move around
- 3. Multiple Choice

describes the phospholipid bilayer only
describes the 4 parts of the cell membrane that can move around
describes the 4 parts of the cell membrane but they do not move around
describes the cellulose that provides structure and protection to the cell
- 4. Multiple Choice
Which of the following describes the 4 parts of the cell membrane?

- 18. Drag and Drop
The cell membrane, also known as the (a) membrane, is found in (b) types of cells. It controls and (c) what is allowed in and out of the cell to help maintain (d) or a balanced environment. It also is known as the (e) because the different parts of the cell membrane can move around and are not fixed in one location.

The cell membrane is made up of several components, each with their own function. The main part is the (a) , which allows small or non-polar molecules (such as (b) or steroid hormones) to pass through the membrane. Larger and polar molecules (such as (c) and sugars) are too big to pass through the phospholipid bilayers so they use the (d) to travel in or out of the cell. (e) helps make the cell membrane more rigid or loose to control what goes in and out of the cell.
