What is the role of the cell membrane in moving substance in and out of the cell?

The cell membrane is considered to be semipermeable. This means that it will let some substances through (either in or out), but others it won't. The cell membrane is considered to be 3 layers (lipid, protein, lipid) Certain proteins will help substances into the cell, but some they won't let in. Generally, smaller molecules (oxygen, water, CO2, etc.) will pass through easier than larger molecules (glucose, other sugars). Basically, the cell membrane determines what substances are allowed to pass it/out of the cell.

The cell membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell. There are protein channels within the lipid bilayer (membrane) of the cell. There are carbohydrate chains that hang off of the protein channels that identify each particle around the cell to make sure its what the cell needs, if not it wont let it in.
