In an experiment the proteins in the cell surface membrane of a living cell were labelled with a fluorescent dye.
A small area of the membrane was observed using a microscope. A laser was then used to permanently destroy the fluorescence of the dye molecules in this field of view.
The fluorescence in this field of view was later seen to return.
What does this experiment show?
