A cell membrane is found on both plant and animal cells it selectively chooses what substances may enter or leave the cell. Hence the term selectively permeable. For a more advanced explanation I recommend you research protein icebergs and the different types of transport a membrane can take part in. Example active transport

∙ 13y agoYes. A cell membrane (the outer casing or inner casing in a plant cell) is selectively permeable. This is because some materials can pass freely through the cell membrane while others cannot.

∙ 12y agoA selectively permeable membrane means that only certain substances can pass through the membrane. The word selectively indicates for us that only selected substances can pass through.

Is the cell-membrane permeable?
The cell membrane is semi-permeable.
Which part in the cell is fully permeable and selectively permeable?
in plants cell surface membrane! and in animal plasma membrane!
Example of Semi permeable membrane?
Animal cell membranes are a semi-permeable membrane.
What types of molecules can easily go through your cell membrane are permeable to the cell membrane?
Substances with a hydrophillic-lipophillic balance are permeable through the cell membrane.
Is cell wall is a permeable membrane?
it is not selective permeable. - Cell membranes are selective permeable. Cell walls are fully permeable - which means that it allows all substances/molecules to pass in and out of the cell. It is located outside of the membrane.
What dose the cell membrane control?
its selectivly permeable which means it lets certain materials enter and leave the cell
What is the out cell membrane do in a plant cell?
it is not call ed the outer membrane, its the cell wall. It does the same thing like the cell membrane, but the cell wall is much for stricter with objects coming in and out of cell, what is call, selectivly permeable
The movement of water molecules across a selectivly permeable membrane is known as?
Osmosis
Why is it important for the cell membrane to be a selectivly premeable?
It is important because, if the cell membrane was not selectivly permable, we would not be able to do the things today.
Is the cell-membrane permeable?
The cell membrane is semi-permeable.
How are cell membranes selectivly permeable?
yes. they are permeable to to the things that they need and the things that they don t they just don t take it in
Which part in the cell is fully permeable and selectively permeable?
in plants cell surface membrane! and in animal plasma membrane!
Example of Semi permeable membrane?
Animal cell membranes are a semi-permeable membrane.
Is plant cell will semi permeable or fully permeable?
It is semi permeable [ the cell membrane]
What is the basic strcture of a cell membrane?
Cell membrane is elastic and transparent. It can be impermeable, permeable, semi-permeable or selectively permeable. In humans the plasma membrane is selectively permeable that is it allows entry to certain substance.
What type of molecules can easily go through your cell membrane or are permeable to the cell membrane?
Substances with a hydrophillic-lipophillic balance are permeable through the cell membrane.
What types of molecules can easily go through your cell membrane are permeable to the cell membrane?
Substances with a hydrophillic-lipophillic balance are permeable through the cell membrane.
