Plasma membrane is the outer covering of a cell.
Explanation:
- All the organelles of the body are enclosed inside the plasma membrane.
- The plasma membrane is semi-permeable and hence allows exchange of materials through it.
- The smaller molecules can pass easily through the cell membrane by diffusion.
- However, the larger molecules pass through active transport or by using carrier proteins.
- Plasma membrane is made up of phospholipid bi layer which makes it adaptable to carry out its function.

The plasma membrane, also called the cell membrane, is the membrane found in all cells that separates the interior of the cell from the outside environment. The plasma membrane consists of a lipid bilayer that is semipermeable. The plasma membrane regulates the transport of materials entering and exiting the cell.
