Can somebody clarify the role of the salt bridge in an electrochemical cell? Thank you!

Re: Cell Diagram
The salt bridge serves two related functions. The primary function is to complete the circuit so that charge can flow from one half-cell to the other. The second is to balance the mass by allowing the anion to move to the half-cell where additional cations are being produced
