A cell is a complex system. Like most systems, a cell contains a boundary that separates things that are inside the system from those that are outside of the system. Which part of the cell functions as a system boundary?

Answered by maham237 @ 25/06/2021

Answer;

Cell membrane

A cell membrane acts as a boundary that separates things that are inside the system from those that are outside the system.

Explanation;

It is a thin semipermeable structure that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell.

The membrane functions to protect the integrity of the internal environment of the cell by allowing selective movements of materials in and out of the cell.

The membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it.
