The cell membrane regulates what enters and exits the cell through selective permeability, allowing controlled transport of substances. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and employs both passive and active transport mechanisms to maintain homeostasis. Additionally, the membrane is involved in cell communication, impacting cellular functions and health.
