    The cell is the basic unit of all living things. The plasma membrane determines what goes in and out of the cell, serves as an attachment for the skeleton, receives and sends stimuli, and has binding sites for enzymes. The plasma membrane is a phospholipid bilayer that is 8-10 nm thick, with hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails.
