What is the abillity of a membrane to allow materials to pass through called?
permeability
What is the cell membrane that allows things to pass through?
It is called semi-permeability, a series of biochemical structures and processes that Control The Ingress and Egress of bio-materials into and out of The Cell.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through it is called?
permeability
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through called?
permeability
What is a semipermeable mebrane?
The cell membrane is called as semi-permeable membrane because it allows only certain/selective molecules to pass through it.It mostly allows only solvent molecules to pass.It is sometimes also called as selectively permeable membrane.
Thin layer surrounding all cells that allows water and dissolved materials to pass into and out of the cell?
The cell membrane. Also called the phospholipid bilayer.
What is it called when an input of energy is required to move materials through a cell membrane?
Active Transport
What is moving materials through a cell membrane without using energy is called?
Passive Transport
A type of membrane which allows only certain molecules to pass through is called?
Semi- Permeable
What is The process of substances leaving a cell called?
The process of substances leaving a cell is called diffusion. The cell membrane is a selective permeable membrane that only allows certain materials to enter or leave the cell.
Why is the plasma membrane called a selectively permeable membrane?
The Plasma Membrane is a selectively permeable membrane as it only allows entry and exit of some selected molecules into and out of the Cells. It also prevents movement of some other materials, therefore the plasma membrane is called a selectively permeable membrane.
What are materials called which allow heat through?
It is called conductivity
