What regulates passage of materials into and out of cells?
The cell membrane, or plasma membrane, regulates the passage of materials into and out of cells through selective permeability. This means that only certain substances are allowed to pass through the membrane, while others are blocked or actively transported. This selective permeability helps maintain the internal environment of the cell and allows for proper function and communication with the external environment.
