ℹ️ Cell Membrane Information

The cell membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that regulates the movement of ions and molecules. It maintains concentration gradients through active transport mechanisms like the Na+/K+ pump and passive diffusion through ion channels. The membrane potential is crucial for cellular communication and function.
