Non ionized molecule pass through the lipid bilayer faster than ionized molecules because of the hydrophobic portion of the lipid bilayer.

non ionized molecules are ex glucose

ionized molecute Na, K

Can polar molecules pass through the phospholipid bilayer?

Yes, polar molecules can pass through the phospholipid bilayer through facilitated diffusion or active transport.


What can pass through the phospholipid bilayer?

Small, non-polar molecules like oxygen and carbon dioxide can pass through the phospholipid bilayer easily. Larger or charged molecules may need special transport proteins to help them cross.


What can cross the phospholipid bilayer?

Small, non-polar molecules like oxygen and carbon dioxide can easily cross the phospholipid bilayer of a cell membrane. Larger or charged molecules typically need the help of transport proteins to pass through.


What can't pass through the phospholipid bilayer?

Large molecules such as proteins, charged ions, and polar molecules have difficulty passing through the phospholipid bilayer due to its hydrophobic core. These molecules often require assistance from transport proteins or channels to facilitate their movement across the membrane.


Which molecule among the following will not pass through the phospholipid bilayer of a membrane?

The molecule that will not pass through the phospholipid bilayer of a membrane is a large and polar molecule.


Can CO2 pass through the phospholipid bilayer?

oxygen


Is oxygen able to pass directly through the phospholipid bilayer?

Yes, oxygen molecules are small and nonpolar, allowing them to pass directly through the phospholipid bilayer of cells by simple diffusion. This is one of the reasons why oxygen can easily enter and exit cells to support cellular respiration.


What does Phospholipid Bilayer?

The phospholipid bilayer is the outer layer of the cell. It only lets very small molecules through it. The bigger ones will have to go through the proteins lodged in the bilayer and the HUGE molecules will have to perform exocytosis or endocytosis


What can pass through the bilayer with ease?

Molecules that are not polar or ion molecules. That is because they won't be stopped by the hydrophobic tails and they will have the acknowledgement to pass through the cell membrane thanks to little resistance. This makes those molecules have an advantage.


Why can't water pass through the phospholipids?

Water cannot pass through phospholipids because phospholipid molecules have hydrophobic tails that repel water molecules, preventing them from passing through the lipid bilayer.
