Cell membranes are composed of a lipid bilayer. Cellular fluid (cytosol) and the cell's organelles are contained by the cell's membrane, which is composed of a lipid bilayer. Lipids are a type of fat. Because a cell's membrane is composed of fat, only fat-soluble molecules are able to dissolve through the membrane into the cytosol.
non-polar
The rigid protein layers present on both the sides of the lipid bilayer do not allow substances to pass through the plasma membrane.
Osmosis can only occur if water travels through the semi-permeable membrane. This will cause water to cross the lipid bilayer.

passive diffusion through the lipid bilayer
It is because of the make up of the membrane. Most of the bilayer is hydrophobic; therefore water or water-soluble molecules do not pass through easily. Other do pass through easily. A cell controls what moves through the membrane by means of membrane proteins embedded in the phospholipid bilayer.
non-polar
A cell membrane is made up of lipids (the lipid bilayer) was well as glycoprotiens and glycocalyses. The proteins can be on either or bothe sides of the lipid bilayer, allowing for various types of transport through the "semi-permeable membrane." The proteins on the surface may be used for identification purposes.
