permeability
What else can I help you with?
Can charged molecules pass through the membrane?
Yes, charged molecules can pass through the membrane.
Why can't ions pass through the cell membrane?
Ions cannot pass through the cell membrane because the membrane is selectively permeable, meaning it only allows certain substances to pass through. Ions have an electric charge that makes it difficult for them to pass through the hydrophobic interior of the membrane.
Can hydrophobic molecules pass through a membrane?
Yes, hydrophobic molecules can pass through a membrane because the lipid bilayer of the membrane is also hydrophobic, allowing them to move through easily.
Can large polar molecules pass through the plasma membrane?
No, large polar molecules cannot pass through the plasma membrane.
Which molecules cannot pass through the membrane?
Large molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids cannot pass through the cell membrane.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through?
permeability
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through it is called?
permeability
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through called?
permeability
What does dialysis separate?
the separation of disolved molecules based on their ability to pass through a semipermeable membrane.
Why the waste can pass through the membrane?
Waste can pass through a membrane due to its size and composition. Membranes have small pores or channels that allow smaller molecules or ions to pass through, while larger molecules or particles are blocked. Additionally, the chemical properties of the waste may also play a role in its ability to pass through a membrane.
Can charged molecules pass through the membrane?
Yes, charged molecules can pass through the membrane.
What is membrane permeability?
Membrane permeability refers to the ability of molecules, substances, etc. to pass through the membrane. For example, the cell membrane is referred to as 'semi-permeable' because it allows some molecules (such as water) to enter, and stops other molecules (such as sodium ions) from passing through the membrane. If these want to get into the cell, they must then rely on proteins in the cell membrane to let them in.
What is the semipermeable membrane?
The cytoplasm of a cell is surrounded by a cell membrane or plasma membrane. The membrane is said to be 'semi-permeable', in that it can either let a substance pass through freely, pass through to a limited extent or not pass through at all.the membrane is somewhat effective at letting fluids through
Why can't ions pass through the cell membrane?
Ions cannot pass through the cell membrane because the membrane is selectively permeable, meaning it only allows certain substances to pass through. Ions have an electric charge that makes it difficult for them to pass through the hydrophobic interior of the membrane.
What are you considering when you referring to how easily materials can pass through membrane?
What you are considering when you are referring to how easily materials can pass through a membrane is how permeable the cell wall or membrane is.
Can hydrophobic molecules pass through a membrane?
Yes, hydrophobic molecules can pass through a membrane because the lipid bilayer of the membrane is also hydrophobic, allowing them to move through easily.
What is the ability of a membrane to allow materials to pass through called?
Permeable if anything can go through or semipermeable if only certain things can go through it.
