What does th cell membrane do?

The cell membrane allows food, water and unneeded wastes to travel in and out of the cell (it kind of acts like a filter in a way). While protecting and supporting the cell in place. Cell surface membrane: phospholipids bilayer with protein forming a partially permeable membrane It restricts movement and supports shape.
