Note ... the property of a cell membrane is that no particles can pass through it.
At least not unaided. Cells have (make) specific proteins that are embedded within the membrane to pass materials back and forth.
Due to the construction of a cell membrane (fat on both sides of a monomolecular layer of water) only molecules that are soluble in both lipids and water can get through at all.

What are the properties of solutes that can cross a membrane by simple diffusion?
The size of the molecule. Usually if a membrane is semi - permeable (only allows some molecules through by simple diffusion) the molecule that will be allowed through most is H2O(water).
Which type of membrane allows anything to pass through?
permeable
How do lipid or oil get through plasma cell membrane?
Lipids or oil get through plasma membrane because plasma membrane is a selectively permeable membrane. It allows entry and exit of only some substances through it.
What is a permeable membrane?
permeable membrane: is a membrane that allows water to pass through the membrane ; the salt water is then left out
What does it mean if a cell membrane is selectively permiable?
The cell membrane only allows certain molecules through.
What are the properties of solutes that can cross a membrane by simple diffusion?
The size of the molecule. Usually if a membrane is semi - permeable (only allows some molecules through by simple diffusion) the molecule that will be allowed through most is H2O(water).
What properties does a selective permeable membrane have?
the ability to allow materials to cross a membrane
A membrane that allows only certain substances to pass through is a?
A permeable membrane
What is meant by membrane is membrane?
a partially permeable membrane allows some molecules or ions to pass through it
What part of the cell membrane allows small molecules to pass through?
the cell membrane
What is the name of the membrane that allows the movement of water and substances to move through the process of active transport and passive transport?
The name of the membrane that allows movement of water and substances through the process of active and passive transport is semipermeable membrane.
What do you call a cell membrane that allows certain molecules to pass through?
A selectively permeable membrane.
Definition of freely permeable membrane?
freely permiable membrane allows everything to pass through.
Which type of membrane allows anything to pass through?
permeable
How do lipid or oil get through plasma cell membrane?
Lipids or oil get through plasma membrane because plasma membrane is a selectively permeable membrane. It allows entry and exit of only some substances through it.
What transport protein allows ions to pass through the cell membrane?
Ion Channels allows ions to pass through the cell membrane.
A membrane that allows some but not all materials to pass through it is called .?
This sort of membrane is said to be semipermeable.
