Yes, cells have a selectively permeable membrane that allows liquids, and other chemicals to pass through, depending on the concentration inside the cell. The process of water moving from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration is 'osmosis'. Also learn to look things up on wikipedia.

∙ 13y agoWater molecules get through a the semipermeable membrane of a cell in a process called osmosis where the high concentration of water filters into the membrane to create equilibrium on both sides.

∙ 13y agoBecause the cell membrane is semipermeable. Osmosis dictates that water molecules move from solutions of a lower (more negative) water potential to solutions of a higher water potential (distilled water has a water potential of 0).

EG. Oxygen can pass through membranes in our lungs because the particles are smaller than the holes. Osmosis!

What does the membrane protein do?
It acts as a facilitator to allow water-soluble subtances to pass through the cell membrane
What is the process by which tiny particles can pass through the cell membrane?
Small particles can pass through the cell membrane by simple diffusion. If the particles are water, the process is given a special name: osmosis.
What is a permeable membrane?
permeable membrane: is a membrane that allows water to pass through the membrane ; the salt water is then left out
How is the cell membrane involved in regulating osmosis?
It is semi-permeable to water, in which water can pass it through the double lipid layer or through proteins crossing the double layer of the cell membrane.
What membrane of the red cell will allow water oxygen carbon dioxide and glucose to pass through?
Plasma membrane
Molecules can pass through the cell membrane of the human cell?
The molecules that can pass through the cell membrane of the human cell include water. Other molecules include fat soluble vitamins.
Why does water pass quickly through cell?
it moves through aquaporins in the membrane.
What does the cell membrane do inside of the animal cell?
The cell membrane is the layer that surrounds the cell and allows nutrients and water to pass through.
Movement of water across a cell membrane?
they pass through channels in the cell membrane
How water molucleus move through the cell membrane doing out mosis?
During osmosis, water molecules move through the cell membrane by passing through microscopic openings in the membrane. The openings are large enough for the water molecules to pass through.
What substance must pass through a cell's membrane for the cell to continue to function?
water and nutrients.
What does the membrane protein do?
It acts as a facilitator to allow water-soluble subtances to pass through the cell membrane
