The statements that correctly describe the cell membrane are:

It only allows certain materials to leave the cell.
It only allows certain materials to enter the cell.
It helps the cell get rid of waste.

The cell membrane is selectively permeable, meaning it regulates what enters and exits the cell, allowing only specific substances to pass through. It does not allow all materials to enter or leave, and it does not bring waste into the cell for storage.
