One possible reason behind the inability of a certain substances to pass across a cell membrane is molecule size.
the cellmembrane?
The cell membrane is selectively permeable. Some substances like molecules are too big to pass through the membrane. The membrane allows passive transport of moleculesÊ by filtration, diffusion, or osmosis.
The direction of net movement across a cell membrane is determined by the concentration gradient of a substance, with molecules moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Additionally, the permeability of the membrane to the specific molecules also influences their movement. External factors such as temperature and pressure can also impact the direction of movement across the membrane.
Yes, it is possible to see across Lake Ontario from certain locations depending on visibility and distance.

38 miles across. That is 48 km across but I'm not certain.
