What is the semipermeable membrane?

The cytoplasm of a cell is surrounded by a cell membrane or plasma membrane. The membrane is said to be 'semi-permeable', in that it can either let a substance pass through freely, pass through to a limited extent or not pass through at all.the membrane is somewhat effective at letting fluids through
