When the temperature rises, the molecules have increased kinetic energy which means that the phospholipids and other substances move around more, making the membrane more 'leaky' which means that substances that wouldn't usually do so can enter and leave the cell.

What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow material to pass through it called?
permeability
What are facts about permeability?
Changes in permeability are changes in the number of compounds that can pass through a membrane. The presence of certain chemicals or radiation can change the permeability of a membrane.
What has a more vigorous effect on cell membranes acid temperature or alcohol?
Alcohol affects the permeability of the cell membranes. It would have the most vigorous effect.
Do catalysts affect temperature?
A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
Does temperature does temperature affect viscosity of magma?
High temperature=low viscosityLow temperature=high viscosity
How does Permeability affect on ground water?
It doesnt fool
Does the permeability to water affect the equilibrium flow in and flow out value?
no
The length of a part being magnetized by passing an electric current from one end to the other affect 1 permeability 2 strength of magnetic field 3 not affect magnetic field?
Permeability
What factors affecting the diffusion?
There several physical factors that affect the rate at which particles diffuse. These include: the size of the particle, the temperature, the concentration difference, the diffusion distance, the surface area, and permeability.
What feature of a membrane describes whether molecules can cross the membrane?
permeabiity
What factor affects the rate of diffusion?
Diffusion refers to the process where substances from a highly concentrated area move to a place with a lower concentration. The three factors that affect the rate of diffusion are temperature, concentration gradient and the molecular weight of the substances.
What influences the rate of diffusion?
The rate of diffusion increases with temperature. The rate of diffusion also increases with the concentration gradient and the surface area.
How does the permeability of a coil affect mutual inductance?
Since a coil contains numerous loops, more of the conductor is affectedÊ by the magnetic field. An increase in permeability of the core results in an increase in the inductance of the coil.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow material to pass through it called?
permeability
What does permeability depend on?
Permeability depends on membrane solubility and the presence of specific integral transport proteins. Other factors such as pressure, concentration, and temperature of the molecules or solutes on either side, as well as the size of the molecules can also affect permeability.
How does the permeability of soil and rocks affect the flow of groundwater?
Permeability is when water can pass through different types of soil and rocks. Therefore the permeability affects the soil and rocks because if the soil or rock is PERMEABLE then the groundwater can easily flow through it :)
Name the factors that may affect osmosis?
There are at least 2 main factors that may affect osmosis. These 2 factors are amount of water and membrane permeability.
