Detailed explanation-1: -The cell membrane, also called the plasma membrane, is found in all cells and separates the interior of the cell from the outside environment. The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer that is semipermeable. The cell membrane regulates the transport of materials entering and exiting the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike prokaryotes, eukaryotic cells also possess internal membranes that encase their organelles and control the exchange of essential cell components.

Detailed explanation-3: -No cells don’t have a plasma membrane. Without the plasma membrane, the cell could not remain separate from the environment. Thus, all cells must have a plasma membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -All cells have cell membranes. There are variations between cell membranes, but the same basic structure exists in all cells. While some cells will also have a cell wall to provide additional support and protection, this does not replace the cell membrane. Cell membranes are selectively permeable.

Detailed explanation-5: -All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. The plasma membrane, or cell membrane, is the phospholipid layer that surrounds the cell and protects it from the outside environment. Ribosomes are the non-membrane bound organelles where proteins are made, a process called protein synthesis.
