Cell membrane and sap vacuole membrane
Selective permeable materials refer to substances that allow certain molecules or ions to pass through while preventing others from doing so. This property is due to their structure and composition, which includes channels, pores, or specific binding sites that only accommodate certain molecules or ions based on size, charge, or other characteristics. Examples of selectively permeable materials include cell membranes, which regulate the passage of molecules in and out of cells, and semi-permeable membranes used in filtration processes.
They are selectively permeable, provides structure to cells.
Passive and active transport. Passive transport doesn't require the cell's energy, while active transport does.
It is based on the structure of the cell membrane, which has proteins and lipids in it that make some substances impermeable to the membrane, often based on slight electrical charges and sometimes by size of the molecule or other chemical properties. Some substances require an enzyme or hormone to cross the barrier of the cell membrane, such as binding sites on cell membranes that will not allow glucose into the cell unless insulin binds with the sites, which forms a chemical bridge to allow glucose molecules to pass through the cell membrane into the cell. Without the insulin, the cell membrane is impermeable to glucose.
The cell membrane is composed of phospholipid bi-layer and proteins. The phospholipids are both hydrophillic and hydrophobic and makes the cell membrane be selectively permeable, that is allows only curtain molecules to pass through the membrane. The proteins function is to determine wchich molecules must go in and wchich shouldn't go inside the cell.

The cell membrane is specially adapted, as it is selectively permeable.
The cell membrane. It is a semi-permeable membrane (or selectively permeable membrane) - this means that it only lets certain certain molecules or ions pass in or out of the cell. Permeability may depend on the molecule's size, solubility, properties, or chemistry.

The property of phospholipids that makes them ideal for making up the selectively permeable cell membrane is their ability to form a lipid bilayer. A hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail play an important role in the cell membrane.
Since epithelium needs to serve as both a barrier and selectively permeable membrane, the cells need to be tightly junctioned to one another (thus prohibiting paracellular transport) and need to express channels, transporters or exchangers to allow for movement of selected ions/molecules across the epithelial barrier
The cell membrane is semi-permeable (or selectively permeable) and therefore regulates the materials going in and out of the cell.
Membranes are one of endless examples in biology of how structure equals function. If membranes require their structure be formed of specifically amphipathic lipids, this must be directly related to overall membrane function.The primary lipid components of membranes are phospholipids. Phospholipids consist of two hydrophobic ("water fearing") fatty acid tails attached to a hydrophillic ("water loving") phosphate head. Because their fatty acid tails are poorly soluble in water, phospholipids spontaneously form bilayers in aqueous solutions, with the hydrophobic tails buried in the interior of the membrane and the polar head groups exposed on both sides, in contact with the aqueous solution. This amphipathic structure of phospholipid bilayers forms a stable barrier between two aqueous compartments and represent the basic structure of all biological membranes.This structure directly relates to membrane function of forming a selectively permeable barrier between cells or between organelles within cells. The membrane is selectively permeable because only lipid soluble molecules and small uncharged molecules (such as water, carbon dioxide, molecular oxygen, ethanol, etc) may pass freely. Large polar molecules and ions require special transport proteins to cross the membrane and thus allow the cell to monitor what and how much of these molecules it is letting in or out at a given time.In summary, the amphipathic structure of phospholipids allow membranes to form a stable selectively permeable lipid barrier between aqueous compartments within/ between cells.
