Cells contain a certain structure that acts as a gatekeeper in order to maintain homeostasis. This gatekeeper controls what is able to enter and exit the cell. Plant cells produce oxygen as a waste product. What cell structure allows this oxygen to pass into the environment?%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AA. %0D%0Achloroplast%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AB. %0D%0Avacuole%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AC. %0D%0Aendoplasmic reticulum%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AD. %0D%0Acell membrane

The cell structure that allows oxygen to pass into the environment is D. cell membrane.
The cell membrane acts as a gatekeeper, regulating what enters and exits the cell, including the diffusion of oxygen produced by chloroplasts during photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are responsible for the production of oxygen, but it is the cell membrane that facilitates its release into the environment.
