Cell membrane, artwork
Computer artwork of a cutaway side view of the human cell membrane. The cell Membrane is a complex part of the cell that controls what can get in and out of the cell. The membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances in and out of cells. Shown is the lipidlayer (light blue), a tunnel protein (orange, in the foreground). In the background carbohydrate chains (green), collagen (red) and fybronectin glycoprotein (orange, right).
