If proteins have an overall charge, how do membrane proteins traverse through the hydrophobic region of the plasma membrane? These two concepts seem almost contradictory, proteins have a net negative charge due to the...
Transmembrane proteins are inserted into the membrane in the ER in a rather complicated system, there is a whole chapter about translocation of proteins The parts of a transmembrane protein that remain in the membrane are usually composed of hydrophobic amino acids that aren't charged.

Visibility of a cell membrane under microscopic Imaging When we see any cell under a microscope the membrane surrounding the cell is opaque. But then if the cell membrane surrounds the cell in all the three dimensions...
In the center of the cell you observe, you see the membrane straight-on, and light is only affected by 1-2 layers of membrane. On the edge, you are viewing through the membrane somewhat "sideways" , so there is effectively more "thickness" of membrane.

Why the length constant of passive current flow isn't depend on the membrane capacitance? I read that the equation for the length constant for passive conductance along a neuron depend on the resistance of the plasma ...
Length constants are defined in the 'steady state' regime of constant voltage; capacitance is important for time-dependent electrical functions but disappears in the steady state. In a real neuron, where you have other time-dependent (dynamic) features like ion channel opening, time constants and le...
