Carbohydrates are crucial for protecting cells and for differentiating host cells from intruders. In this lesson, we'll explore what carbohydrates are, as well as their important functions in the cell membrane.
The Cell Membrane
A cell membrane is a busy place. Like a city wall, it surrounds the cell and allows the cell to maintain its environment. The membrane is a barrier, but it allows important molecules to pass into and out of the cell, just as travelers can pass into and out of city gates. We can find proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates in the membrane.
