Answer:

Cell membrane.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cell is the basic unit of the living organisms. The cell consists of the various cell organelles like nucleus, mitochondria and Golgi. The cell membrane covers the cell boundary.

The outer shell protects the egg and allows the exchange of moisture. The plasma membrane performs the similar functions ad allows the transport of some selected particles only.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
