Describe with the help of a well labeled diagram the structure of a cell membrane.

The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is a crucial component of all living cells, serving as a selective barrier that separates the cell's internal environment from the external surroundings. It is primarily composed of lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. To describe its structure, we can refer to a simplified, labeled diagram:
