Solution

The correct option is B Cell membrane
The plasma membrane (also known as the cell membrane) is the outermost cell surface, which separates the cell from the external environment. The plasma membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. In the lipid bilayer structure, phospholipids have one hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails.
