Key Difference – Cell Membrane vs Nuclear Membrane The cell membrane, also known as plasma membrane is the barrier which separates the interior of the cell from the outside environment. It is made of the lipid bilayer and membrane proteins. The main function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from disruption. […]
Cell Wall vs Plasma Membrane All organisms are made up of cells. Depending on the cellular organization organisms could be categorized as prokaryotes (bacteria and archea) and eukaryotes (fungi, plants, animals). All of them have plasma membranes, but cell wall is not present in all. Among the species which have a cell wall differences […]
Animal Cell vs Plant Cell Plant cell and animal cell are the structural unit of life of plants and animals respectively. However, there are both similarities as well as differences between cells of plants and animals. Let us see what these differences are. Firstly, both animal and plant cells are eukaryotes which implies that they […]
The key difference between cell wall and cell membrane is that the cell wall is a fully permeable cell layer present in bacteria, plants, fungi and algae while the cell membrane is a selectively permeable membrane present in all cell types including the animal cells. Cell membrane (plasma membrane) and cell wall are the outermost […]
