The cytoplasm of a cell is surrounded by a cell membrane or plasma membrane. The membrane is said to be 'semi-permeable', in that it can either let a substance pass through freely, pass through to a limited extent or not pass through at all.
the membrane is somewhat effective at letting fluids through

Is a bubble semipermeable?
No, a bubble is not semipermeable. A bubble is a thin film of soapy water enclosing air or gas, which is not selectively permeable to different substances like a semipermeable membrane is.

What moves through a semipermeable membrane into an area of what concentration?
Water moves through a semipermeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration. This is called osmosis.
What is an example of a semipermeable membrane that is edible?
An example of a semipermeable membrane that is edible is an egg membrane. The eggshell membrane is a thin layer inside the eggshell that is semipermeable, allowing air and moisture to pass through while protecting the egg. It is safe to consume and can be found in some health supplements.
