Cell membranes are deformable to a variable degree (which depends on the type, maturity of the cell as well as the environmental conditions.) This is the measure of elasticity and resisting sheer stress in a solute-containing mixture.
Cell membranes do contain phospholipids (in a bi-layered organization) and these elements are able to be flipped within the inner and outer layers of the membrane. Lateral diffusion of phospholipids also allow for the exchange of lipid molecules without moving them across the 2-layer hierarchy.
Cell membranes are selectively permeable.
Cell membranes are anchored to some important functional and structural proteins. These might be enzymes, receptors, ion channels, transporters, even the enzymes of glycolytic pathway. Again depends on which cell we are talking about.
