The primary structural molecule composing a cell membrane is a phospholipid.

Explanation: Cell membranes are primarily composed of a bilayer of phospholipids. Each phospholipid molecule has a hydrophilic (water-attracting) "head" and two hydrophobic (water-repelling) "tails." This arrangement allows the cell membrane to form a stable barrier between the interior of the cell and its external environment, while also providing fluidity and flexibility. The phospholipid bilayer is fundamental to the structure and function of cell membranes in all living organisms.
