the membrane may only allow small particles or may only allow polar/nonpolar molecules, hydrophobic vs hydrophyllic molecules
Weathering, erosion.
No, not all sound is passed through all materials. Different materials have different acoustic properties that affect how sound waves travel through them. Some materials can absorb or block sound, while others can transmit sound more easily.
No, heat cannot travel through all materials. Some materials are insulators, which do not allow heat to pass through easily, while others are conductors that allow heat to pass through them readily. The ability of a material to conduct heat is determined by its thermal conductivity.
It doesn't! it just lets some materials that are useful for the cells into the membrane and others out, through diffusion.
Yes, ultraviolet light can pass through some materials, while being absorbed or blocked by others. For example, materials such as glass, certain plastics, and synthetic fabrics are transparent to UV light, allowing it to pass through. On the other hand, materials like metals and thick clothing can block or absorb UV light.
Glass, some plastics, air, water, and others.
Alpha particles can pass through very few materials. The spacing between nuclei of the material would have to be enormous for an alpha particle to pass through. The passage of alpha particles simply depends on the density of the material.
Different materials respond to heat in various ways. Some materials expand when heated, while others contract. Some materials conduct heat well, allowing it to flow through easily, whereas others are poor conductors, leading to slower heat transfer. In addition, some materials may change their chemical or physical properties when exposed to high temperatures.
Heat can and does travel through all matter. It's just that some materials carry it much slower than others, and these are called insulators. The best ones being foam type materials.
Something that is selectively permeable allows some things to pass through it and not others
Yes, magnetism can pass through some magnetic materials such as iron or steel, but may be blocked or weakened by others like nickel or cobalt. The ability of magnetism to pass through a material depends on its magnetic permeability.
Yes, sounds can travel through different materials. The speed of sound and the way it travels may vary depending on the material, with some materials allowing sound to travel faster or more effectively than others. For example, sound travels faster through solids than gases due to the closer arrangement of particles.
