The cell membrane is selectively permeable. What does "selectively permeable" mean?

• Anything can enter.

• Nothing can enter.

• Some things can enter, while other things can't enter.

What organelle contains the DNA and is the "brain, or control center" of the cell?

• mitochondria

• nucleus

• ribosome

• cell membrane
