Yes, a semipermeable membrane selectively allows chemicals to be absorbed into the body. Epithelial tissue covers all parts of the body that has contact to the the outside environment including the gastric tract. One prime example of semipermeable epithelial tissue of the body is the tissue of the intestines which has folds exactly for the purpose of absorbing food.

basement membrane
Can a epithelial tissue be called as semipermeable tissue?
Yes
What moves through a semipermeable membrane into an area of what concentration?
Water moves through a semipermeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration. This is called osmosis.

What is the semipermeable layer that surrounds all cells?
The semipermeable layer that surrounds all cells is called the cell membrane or plasma membrane. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins and acts as a barrier, controlling the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
