Water molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane.
The membrane is semi-permeable. Sugar molecules are too large to diffuse through.
Lipid-soluble molecules such as O2 and CO2 diffuse freely through the plasma membrane.
A process known as passive transport helps molecules to diffuse across a membrane. Passive transport does not involve the use of chemical energy, unlike active transport does.
No, there are specific cell membranes that allow only certain molecules to pass through. Some stay open and others must be opened ( like a gate ).
Glucose is too big to pass through.

Glucose is too big to pass throught.
Carbon dioxide, oxygen and some nonpolar molecules diffuse easily.
semi-permeable.
glucose molecules will diffuse out of the cell. apex
The cell membrane, which surrounds the cell and is responsible for which molecules are allowed to diffuse into or out of the cell and which molecules are impermeable to the membrane
