Cell membrane
Skin cells.
A cell membrane, or cell wall.
The epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin, contains specialized cells that produce keratin, which forms a waterproof barrier to protect the body from water loss and prevent harmful substances from entering.
Cell membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that separates the interior of a cell from its external environment. It controls the passage of substances in and out of the cell to maintain cellular homeostasis and regulate the internal environment of the cell.
It's enclosed by a barrier known as plasma membrain.
The cell membrane is found surrounding the outer boundary of the cell, acting as a barrier between the cell's internal environment and the external environment. It is present in all types of cells, including animal cells, plant cells, and bacterial cells.
The barrier between the external environment and the inside of the cell is the cellular membrane, or just cell membrane. A cell wall is also present in plant cells, but substances can still enter through the cell wall. Harmful substances are stopped only when reaching the cell membrane. Some unicellular bacteria (or viruses) form an external layer outside the cell membrane, known as an envelope.
to make a barrier from the environment? to repair other damaged/dead cells via mitosis.

Tight junctions between animal cells create an impermeable barrier that prevents the passage of molecules between cells. These junctions seal the space between cells, controlling the movement of substances. Tight junctions are important in maintaining tissue integrity and barrier function in organs such as the intestines and blood-brain barrier.
