A Cell Membrane is like airport security because they both
control what materials and substances are allowed into and out
of the area. A cell membrane controls what substances can pass
through and what wastes can pass out of the cell. It also
protects the cell from the outside environment. This is similar to
how the security personnel control what people and substances
are allowed in and out of the airport or even the country and how
they protect the people from outside hazards. The structure is
similar as well because airport security has two layers of
protection. One of machines screening people and of people
checking as well which is similar to the phospholipids double
membrane.

Cell Membrane Just hanging out with the phospholipids
deciding who gets to come in to this party
Is your surface
area getting too
big?
Phospholipid Head It was cool hanging out with you dude
and we LOVE the water
Phospholipid Tail No way man the water SUCKED we hate
water!
Waste Dude it wasn’t cool how you let us get kicked out like
that!
Are your
Phospholipid
heads and tails
arguing too much?
Nutrients Thanks for letting me in Babe I had a great time

Cell Membrane is wanted
for letting wastes ESCAPE
from cells and for LETTING
IN nutrients and other
materials into the cell. Last
seen surrounded by a
double layer of
Phospholipid molecules.
Cell Membrane has been
seen in Plant and Animal
cells and can be found in
both Eukaryotic and
Prokaryotic cells. Cell
Membrane is not
dangerous but is definitely
“Wanted” by all cells!

CELL MEMBRANE
A Cell Membrane is needed in
both prokaryotic and eukaryotic
cells to help control what goes
into and out of the cell. Applicants
must be formed of a double layer
of phospholipid molecules.
Individuals wishing to apply for
this 24 hour a day, 7 day a week,
365 days a year job must be able
to screen materials and allow only
necessary items into the cell and
wastes and unwanted materials
out of the cell.
