Select all the roles that membranes play in cells.Multiple select question.enclose organelles in eukaryotic cellsreceive and respond to external stimulitranscribe DNA into RNA and assemble ribosomestransport substances into and out of the cell
Solution
The roles that membranes play in cells include:
- Enclosing organelles in eukaryotic cells
- Receiving and responding to external stimuli
- Transporting substances into and out of the cell
However, membranes do not transcribe DNA into RNA and assemble ribosomes. This is a function of the nucleus and the ribosomes themselves, not the cell membrane.
