    Help in glycocalyx negative charge

    Hello everyone, sorry i'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question. My Physiology book says one of the glycocalyx functions is to repel negative charges (since it's negatively charged itslef). My question is, why does a cell need to repel negative charges in the first place? Thanks!

    Effect of Cholesterol on Cell Membrane

    Can someone double check if I'm thinking of this correctly? If the temperature increases, we want to decrease fluidity (higher temperature might cause the cell to “denature” and explode because of the more kinetic energy possible) to keep the cell stable. If the temperature drops too low (the...
