The plasma membrane. Carrier proteins and ion channels are parts of the plasma membrane, and aid in diffusion across concentration gradients, as most things don't freely move from one end of the cell membrane to the other. The Sodium-Potassium pump is a major ion channel in the plasma membrane, and regulates the intake of potassium and export of sodium (3 molecules sodium out, 2 molecules potassium in.)

Sodium, potassium and calcium are the three things that move through the plasma membrane. There are many other molecules and ions that do move through cell membrane. Plasma membrane have a selective permeable property.

The plasma membrane. Carrier proteins and ion channels are parts of the plasma membrane, and aid in diffusion across concentration gradients, as most things don't freely move from one end of the cell membrane to the other. The Sodium-Potassium pump is a major ion channel in the plasma membrane, and regulates the intake of potassium and export of sodium (3 molecules sodium out, 2 molecules potassium in.)
Things like oxygen, CO2 and lipids cross the membrane with simple diffusion. Water can cross the membrane with osmosis when the water moves through a channel protein in the plasma membrane. Glucose, potassium, sodium etc. moves through a carrier protein in the membrane with the process of active movement. In the process of active movement energy is needed and it is given by the glucose or ATP from the cell.
The plasma membrane is made from tightlypack phospholipids. The plasma membrane prevents polar molecules and large molecules from diffusing freely. Fatty (lipophilic) molecules can easily pass through. since cells often need water soluble materials such as water and sugars, transporters and pores need to be made out of proteins to let those molecules through. One of the most important pumps is the Na+/K+ ATPase pump which maintains gradients of sodium and potassium across the cell membrane

voltage type of channel
particles that are small and hydrophobic and semipermeable. hydrophobic ions those that are soluble in lipids-- can easily pass through the membrane. In addition, small molecules like O2can sneak between the phospholipids of the membrane. On the other hand, hydrophilic molecules (like water and glucose) and ions (such as sodium ions and hydrogen ions) cannot pass directly through the phospholipids of the plasma membrane.
Sodium is very reactive and easily react with oxygen or water.
Sodium, potassium and calcium are the three things that move through the plasma membrane. There are many other molecules and ions that do move through cell membrane. Plasma membrane have a selective permeable property.
Some substances, including sodium and potassium, use a process called active transport to permeate cell walls. Active transport is controlled by other body systems. It limits the quantity of these substances passing through the plasma membrane to match the needs of the body.
