it is found near the cell wall, so that when substances enters the cell wall they pass through the selectively permeable membrane.

Do any of the following cells lack a plasma membrane simple squamous epithelium human red blood cells sperm cells teased smooth muscle cells?
Animal cells all have a plasma membrane. Used to just be called the "cell membrane" and separates plants from animals in that plants have a cell wall and animals have the plasma membrane. This is the selectively permeable lipid bi layer found in all cells and is what keeps extracellular material outside the lipid bi layer and keeps the organelles inside the cell.
In what way are cell membranes selectively permeable?
The cell membrane (also called the plasma membrane, plasmalemma, or "phospholipid bilayer") is a selectively permeable lipid bilayer found in all cells. It contains a wide variety of biological molecules, primarily proteins and lipids, which are involved in a vast array of cellular processes such as cell adhesion, ion channel conductance and cell signaling. The plasma membrane also serves as the attachment point for both the intracellular cytoskeleton and, if present, the extracellular cell wall.
Is water permeable to the cell wall?
... Yes the cell wall is only found in a plants cells, it is around the cell membrane and is a large layer made of thick material that protects the cell.
Organs found in plants what organs are there in plants?
cell membrane,mitochondria,photosythesis
Where is cholesterol found in cell membrane?
The plasma membrane is present in all prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It is the semi-permeable membrane that encloses the cell. So to clearly answer your question, the plasma membrane is found on the outside of the cell; it encircles the cell.
What is a cell membrane that is selectivly permeable?
A cell membrane is found on both plant and animal cells it selectively chooses what substances may enter or leave the cell. Hence the term selectively permeable. For a more advanced explanation I recommend you research protein icebergs and the different types of transport a membrane can take part in. Example active transport
Is a cell membrane in the plant cell or animal cell or both?
The cell membrane (also called the plasma membrane, plasmalemma, or "phospholipid bilayer") is a selectively permeable lipid bilayer found in all cells. Yeah for wikipedia.
Difference between plasma membrane and cell wall?
wikipedia " plasma membrane" the membrane is thin bi-lipid (two-fat) layer that blocks out water the cell wall is a rigid cube like structure that surrounds a plant cell and gives it rigidity jd
What is the organelle found in plant cells in which cellular respiration occurs?
The plant cell absorbs particles through diffusion, as in the selectively permeable cell membrane allows oxygen or water or something to enter the cell. Hope this helps :)

Compare and contrast the functions of a cell wall to the functions of a plasma membrane?
The differences between cell wall and cell membrane are:Cell wall is made of cellulose while plasma membrane is made of lipids & proteins.Cell wall is freely permeable but cell membrane is selectively permeable.Cell wall is dead but plasma membrane is living.Cell wall is rigid but plasma membrane is smooth, elastic and flexible.Cell wall is found only in plant cells but plasma membrane is found in all liviing cells.
Organs found in plants what organs are there in plants?

Is cell surface membrane found in plants and animal cells?
A cell membrane is found in both plant and animal cells!!

What is the structure found in the cell membrane and is only found in plants?
The cell wall
