A school analogy for a channel protein is a hallway with a designated passageway. Just as a channel protein serves as a selectively permeable pathway for specific molecules across a cell membrane, the hallway provides a specific pathway for students to move through and reach their designated classrooms. Other types of molecules or students may be excluded from entering the pathway, ensuring only the intended molecules or students can pass through.
membrane
is a series of large flattened membranes that are a pathway through the cytoplasm
Blood coagulation can occur either through an intrinsic or extrinsic pathway. The first step in either pathway begins with the production of Factor X,which marks the common pathway of coagulation.
The functions of carbohydrate portions of molecules include energy storage. It also functions as the backbone of RNA and DNA molecules. Carbohydrates also contribute to the structure of cell walls.

membrane
The mouth provides more air and a better pathway to the lungs.
A protein gate is a pathway through a protein molecule on the plasma membrane in which ions and small molecules can diffuse in or out of a cell.
A semipermeable membrane
A ductless exhaust provides a short channel for the airflow to pass through, while a ducted exhaust provides a pathway to move the air far away.
Small non-polar molecules may pass through a a semipermeable membrane but others require a protein channel.

Through veins.
The electromagnetic forces holding molecules together within the table provide a mesh like structure that prevents the molecules of other objects protruding (or falling) through it!
The nuclear pore which acts as a gate keeper
The circulatory pathway that goes through one's lungs.
