1. | A membrane which is semipermeable and encloses the cytoplasm of the cell is referred as Cell membrane. | A membrane which surrounds nucleus and separates components of the nucleus from the rest of the cell, and this is composed of two layers, this is referred as Nuclear membrane. |
2. | Cell membrane is made up of proteins and phospholipids. | Nuclear membrane is made up of two phospholipid bilayers. |
3. | Cell membrane is a part of cell which surrounds cell of living organism. | Nuclear membrane is a part of cell which surrounds nucleus of the cell. |
4. | Cell membrane is also called as plasma membrane. | Nuclear membrane is also called as nuclear envelope. |
5. | Functions of cell membrane includes maintainance of the cell, it helps to give shape to the cell, it helps to hold cell content, and it protects cell as well cell membrane. | Functions of nuclear membrane includes it helps to separate nucleus content, it protects nucleus, and it protects genetic material. |
