the cell membrane
The cell membrane surrounds the cell and acts like a barrier, controlling what enters and exits the cell to maintain internal balance. It also helps to provide structural support and communication with other cells.
The cell membrane acts like a fluid because of its phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipids are designed in such a way that they are prevented from packing tightly together allowing molecules to drift around in the membrane. This is commonly called fluid mosaic.
The outer layer of a cell that acts as a gatekeeper is called the cell membrane. It regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell to maintain internal balance.

The cell membrane acts like the skin on your body because it coats the outside of the cell and protects the organelles.
The function of the cell membrane is to let things in and out of the cell. It's like a gate to the cell. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have cell membranes.
The cell membrane acts as a "goalie" for a plant cell, controlling what substances can enter and exit the cell to maintain internal balance.
It's the plasma membrane. This is because it acts like a gate regulating what can enter and leave the cell. If the plasma membrane did not exist the cell would die because it might take in something that could kill it.
When the membrane acts like a bouncer at a club, it selectively allows certain guests to enter while keeping others out, similar to how a cell membrane regulates the movement of substances in and out of a cell. This selective permeability ensures that essential nutrients can enter the cell and waste products can exit, maintaining the cell's internal environment. Just as a bouncer uses specific criteria to decide who gets in, the cell membrane employs proteins and channels to control what crosses its barrier.
First of all it is does. And second a cell membrane acts as a barrier between the cell and its environment.
