the flexible barrier that surrounds all cpas; regulates what enters and leaves the cells

flexible double- layered sheet that makes up the cell membrane and farms a barrier between the cells and is surroundings

property of biological membranes that allows some substances to pass across it while others cannot; also called semipermeable membrane

relatively constant internecl physical and chemicals conditions that organisms maintain
