What else can I help you with?
A membrane that allows some substances to pass through while excluding others would be called a?
semipermeable or selectively permeable.
Is it true if the process by which water moves across a selectively permeable membrane is called diffusion?
Diffusion is a physical process. When it is performed through a selectively permeable membrane, it is called osmosis. Thus osmosis is an appropriate word for movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane and not diffusion.
What is it called when a substance can not pass through the cell membrain?
Selectively Permeable
What is it called that all cells have that allow them to let materials in and out?
selectively permeable membrane.
The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane through aquaporins is called?
osmosis
What is a membrane that allows some substances to pass through but excludes others?
A membrane that lets some substances pass through but not others is known as a semipermeable membrane. Other terms that describe this type of membrane are: selectively permeable, partially permeable, or differentially permeable.
The passive transport of water across a selectively permeable is called?
The passive transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, in order to equalize the solute concentrations on both sides of the membrane.
What is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane is called diffusion. Water will always diffuse down a concentration gradient, from high solute concentration to low solute concentration.
What does it mean that biological memberanes are selectively permeable?
it means that any biological membrane allows only certain solute or we can say nutrients that are required by cell, to enter into cell through itself and not other unnecessary particles hrmful to cell.. Such property is called selectively permeable or semi permeable...
What is a membrane called when only certain things can cross a membrane?
A membrane that only allows certain substances to cross is called a selectively permeable or semi-permeable membrane. It allows some molecules or ions to pass through while blocking others based on characteristics like size, charge, or solubility.
Why tonoplast is called as selectively permeable membrane?
The tonoplast is called selectively permeable because it allows only certain substances to pass through, while blocking others. This selective permeability helps maintain the internal environment of the vacuole by controlling the movement of ions, nutrients, and waste in and out of the vacuole.
A membrane that allows some substances to pass through while excluding others would be called?
selectively permeable
