cytoplasm and a plasma membrane.cytoplasm and a plasma membrane.

2.2. The plasma membrane The plasma membrane isolates the cell from the isolates the cell from the

environment, controls the flow environment, controls the flow of molecules into and out of of molecules into and out of

the cell, and contains the cell, and contains receptors that effect cell’s receptors that effect cell’s

activities.activities.
