What else can I help you with?
What does the term permable mean?
Selectively permeable refers to a cell membrane that will let certain things in and out of the cell, but block other things.
Which term refers to the movement of water molecules through a selectively permable membrane?
diffusion
What is selectively permable?
Will only allow something of a certain size or with certain characteristics to pass through.
What part of the cell is descibe as selectively permeable?
the cell membrane
Selectively permeable part of the cell that controls what enters and exits the cell?
Plasma (Cell) Membrane
What does the term selectively permable mean?
"Selectively permeable" refers to a membrane that allows certain substances to pass through while blocking others. This selectivity is based on the size, charge, or other properties of the molecules trying to cross the membrane. An example is a cell membrane, which permits the passage of specific molecules necessary for the cell's function while blocking others.
What is semi-permable?
It means that is/can be a door to a cell 'hence semi permeable membrane? (or to anything)
What is the relationship between cell membrane and selectively permeable?
Cell membranes are indeed selectively permeable.
Are cell walls and cell membranes selectively permeable?
Cell membranes are selectively permeable while cell walls are semi-selectively permeable. Keep in mind that only low level organisms, like plants, have cell walls.
Why is it important for the cell membrane to be a selectivly premeable?
It is important because, if the cell membrane was not selectivly permable, we would not be able to do the things today.
What part of the cell does osmosis occur?
it occurs in the cell membrane(through the cell membrane really)
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.
