They only have a cell membrane; plants also have membranes as well, but they also have cell walls.
And to keep this post OT; there really is no need to feed your snake live food; especially if they're eating f/t just fine. That being said, most live feeding mis-haps happen because of owner error, not necessarily because it's intrinsically bad. After all, these are wild animals and they eat live animals in the wild. But most of the horror stories you hear of are people who leave a rodent over night or in for a couple of days. That is beyond irresponsible.
If you must feed live, watch the snake to make sure it actually eats the mouse; if it doesn't eat it within a couple of minutes, remove the mouse right away. You don't want your snake to become another horror story.
But yeah, there is no reason to do it, so don't.
