Answer:

C) the cell membrane forms a barrier that keeps all substances that might harm the cell from entering the cell .

Explanation:

The cells have a very thin "skin" that surrounds them, protects them from external factors and gives them individuality. It is the plasma membrane. Also known as plasmalema, it allows for a chemical composition inside the cell and a different one on the outside. This is essential for the performance of various functions in the body. The membrane also participates in the processes of recognition and communication between cells and allows the capture of signals from the so-called environment or extracellular environment.

It is true that the plasma membrane controls the exit and entry of substances into the cell, but unfortunately, it is not able to form a barrier that prevents all substances that can harm the cell from entering the cell.

Answer:

Astrocytes.

Explanation:

Astrocytes are the star shaped cells that are present in the brain and spinal cord. The exact constitution of astrocytes in the brain is not known and almost 20% to 40% astrocytes are present in brain.

The astrocytes acts as the blood brain barrier and involved in the process of brain scarring. Astrocytes also regulate ions concentration by propagating the calcium ion channels in response to the stimulus. Astrocytes also generate a response by the calcium dependent release of glutamate.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
