What's the difference between human skin and the cell membrane !! I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST

Biology
1 answer:
Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Read explanation

Explanation: there’s no similarity at all. A cell membrane is made of phospholipids, globular proteins, glycolipids, glycoproteins, and cholesterol, and has passages that serve explicitly for passive and active transport of materials through it.

The skin is made of cells and dead keratin and serves as much as possible to prevent most substances from moving through it. It’s “designed” for toughness and distensibility, not for selective permeability.
