The cell membrane controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell. It is a selectively permeable barrier made up of a phospholipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it. It allows some material (such as steroid hormones) to pass straight through, while others (such as ions) need the assistance of a protein transporter, and some material cannot get in at all.
Which structure contains a eukaryotic cells genetic material
The ring of muscle that controls the passage of material from the stomach into the small intestine.
Which structure contains a eukaryotic cells genetic material
DNA, found in the nucleus.
The nucleus controls the cells activities
The cell membrane controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell. It is a selectively permeable barrier made up of a phospholipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it. It allows some material (such as steroid hormones) to pass straight through, while others (such as ions) need the assistance of a protein transporter, and some material cannot get in at all.
They are variable controls which can open to allow the passage of material and then closed to prevent further passage of materials. If you didn't have an anal sphincter you'd really have problems.

The cell membrane is specially adapted, as it is selectively permeable.
