The cell membrane is a structure that is critical to cell function. It interacts with almost every organelle in the cell in some way.

Which of the following best describes how the cell membrane interacts with other organelles in the cell? Select TWO answers.

Select 2 correct answer(s)
Question 5 options:

A. The cell membrane allows glucose into the cell, which is then used by the mitochondria to produce ATP that supports other reactions and functions in the cell.


B. The cell membrane allows cytoplasm to leave the cell, because if there is too much cytoplasm in the cell it can cause the organelles to not function properly.


C. The cell membrane blocks water from entering the cell, as too much water can cause the cell to not function properly.


D. The cell membrane blocks oxygen from entering the cell, which can damage cell organelles as it is a corrosive chemical.


E. The cell membrane allows water and carbon dioxide into the cell, which is then used by the chloroplast to produce glucose which is stored energy the cell can break down later.


F. The cell membrane allows excess ATP that is produced by the mitochondria to exit the cell, as too much ATP is wasted if it stays in the cell.
