As the cell membrane only allows certain substances to enter or leave the cell, meaning that while it IS permeable (as some substances can cross it), it is only selectively as not all substances are able to cross it, only some.
semipermeable or selectively permeable.
A membrane that lets some substances pass through but not others is known as a semipermeable membrane. Other terms that describe this type of membrane are: selectively permeable, partially permeable, or differentially permeable.
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.
Osmosis is the process by which water moves across a selectively permeable membrane.
The passive transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, in order to equalize the solute concentrations on both sides of the membrane.

Diffusion is a physical process. When it is performed through a selectively permeable membrane, it is called osmosis. Thus osmosis is an appropriate word for movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane and not diffusion.
semi permiable I believe, but I'm not 100 percent sure on the spelling selectively permeable

selectively permeable membrane.
The plasma membrane is called the semipermeable membrane because it allows certain substances to pass through while restricting the passage of others. It is selectively permeable, meaning it controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell to maintain internal balance and regulate cellular processes.
The process fo Osmosis.

The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane is called diffusion. Water will always diffuse down a concentration gradient, from high solute concentration to low solute concentration.
