The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer which is actually a phospholipid. Cell membranes are semipermiable and they regulate what enters and leaves the cell.
Structure and function
The carbohydrates help identify chemical signals and define the characteristics of the cell.
It has selective permeability (allows it to control what comes in and out of the cell) and it isolates the cytoplasm.
Plasma Membrane !

alter membrane fluidity
Plasma membrane gives structure to the cell, serve as boundary. It allows the selective passage of molecules across the cell (semi permeable). Starts the signalling event from the receptors it posses on the membrane surface when there is a stimuli bind to it.

The cell membrane is a membrane separating the inside of the cell from the outside environment. This structure is also known as the plasma membrane or the cytoplasmic membrane.
A cell membrane is also known as a plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane. The cell membrane separates the interior of a cell from its outside environment. The main function of a cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings.
Plasma membrane or cell membrane
The plasma membrane has one very specific function: Control over what enters or leaves the cell.
