Solution
The correct option is B Plowe
The cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer that are selectively permeable membranes which separate the interior of the cells (cell organelles and cytoplasm) from the outside environment or the extracellular space.
It is also known as plasmalemma.
The term plasmalemma was coined Janet Plowe.
She was a biologist who described the cell membrane or plasmalemma as a physical membrane instead of an interface between two different liquids.
