Answer:

cell membrane

Step-by-step explanation:

an egg is protected by its outer shell. however, the shell also allows moisture and air to pass through. which cell structure performs a similar function? cell membrane cytoplasm nucleus vacuole

Cell membrane provides rigidity to the cell.They protect the cell as a whole ust like how the egg cell is protected externa;ly by the shell.. The nucleus controls the activity of the cell

The vacuoles stores food. they store nutrint. they are shell like striucture in the cytoplasm.

The cytoplasm gives shape to the cell. they house all other organells of the cell.

So cell membrane is the answer
