What else can I help you with?
What only allows certain substances in and out of a cell?
The permeability of the cell membrane controls which substances may pass in or out of the cell.
What is a membrane called when only certain things can cross a membrane?
A membrane that only allows certain substances to cross is called a selectively permeable or semi-permeable membrane. It allows some molecules or ions to pass through while blocking others based on characteristics like size, charge, or solubility.
What is meant by cell membrane is semipermeable?
It allows only certain molecules to pass through.
Why can't charged molecules pass through the membrane?
Charged molecules cannot pass through the membrane because the membrane is selectively permeable, meaning it only allows certain substances to pass through based on their size and charge. The charged molecules are repelled by the hydrophobic interior of the membrane, which prevents them from crossing.
What properties does a selective permeable membrane have?
the ability to allow materials to cross a membrane
What do you call a cell membrane that allows certain molecules to pass through?
A selectively permeable membrane.
What does it mean if a cell membrane is selectively permiable?
The cell membrane only allows certain molecules through.
What is the term for a membrane that allows certain but not all molecules to diffuse through it?
semi-permeable.
A type of membrane which allows only certain molecules to pass through is called?
Semi- Permeable
What does it mean if a cell is selectively permiable?
The cell membrane only allows certain molecules through.
Why do you think that the eggs membrane will let water to enter but not corn syrup?
water molecules are smaller than corn syrup. the membrane allows a certain size of molecules.
What is a semipermeable mebrane?
The cell membrane is called as semi-permeable membrane because it allows only certain/selective molecules to pass through it.It mostly allows only solvent molecules to pass.It is sometimes also called as selectively permeable membrane.
What is the term used for a layer that allows only certain molecules to pass through the cell membrane?
permiable
What is a material that allows certain molecules to pass through it called?
The Plasma Membrane, which has a phospholipid bi-layer.
