Which part in the cell is fully permeable and selectively permeable?

The cell membrane is selectively permeable, allowing only certain molecules to pass through based on size, charge, and other factors. Conversely, the nuclear envelope is fully permeable to molecules of certain sizes.


The cell membrane is selectively permeable. What does that mean?
