If the cell membrane was made of a molecule that did not repel water, the membrane would become permeable to water and other water-soluble molecules. This would disrupt the cell's ability to maintain internal conditions necessary for its normal functioning, potentially causing the cell to swell and burst due to osmotic imbalance.
The cell would die as it couldn't maintain homeostasis.
The cell membrane and all its organelles would burst.
The world would explode
