One factor that influence the passage of substances through living membranes are size which small molecules pass faster than large. Others are the charge non polar are faster and concentration gradient molecules that move to regions of lower concentration.
It is an insulator.

There is no way to answer this without more information. A transition word is a word used to connect two parts of a passage or quotation, so to complete your question you need to supply the passage or quotation.
To provide an accurate answer, I need to see the passage you're referring to. Please share the text or key details so I can identify the method of comparison used.
Read the passage
Yes, some membranes have protein channels called aquaporins that allow for the passage of hydrophilic substances like water across the membrane. These channels facilitate the movement of water molecules while excluding other substances.
Cheetahs do not have cell walls. However, like all living organisms, they have cell membranes that surround and protect their cells. Cell membranes regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell.
yes it's true.
Semi-permeable membranes are thin solids that allow certain substances to diffuse through them while preventing the passage of others.
The cell membrane supervises the substances entering and exiting the cell. It is selectively permeable and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cell through active or passive transport mechanisms.
Yes, prokaryotic cells have cell membranes. The cell membrane surrounds the entire cell and separates its internal environment from the external environment. It regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell.
Epithelial tissue is the type of tissue that is thin and primarily concerned with the movement of substances across membranes. It forms the lining of various organs and cavities in the body, allowing for the selective passage of molecules and ions.
Yes, the cells of archaebacteria, bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and animals all have cell membranes. (Viruses have protein coats, not cell membranes and thus are not true 'cells'.) Thus indeed, all cells possess a cell membrane.

Yes, cell membranes in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have similar structures but differ in some aspects of their functions. Prokaryotic cell membranes lack membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cell membranes contain them. Both types of cell membranes regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell, but eukaryotic cell membranes are more complex due to the presence of organelles.
Cell membranes perform several key functions, including acting as a barrier to regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell, providing structural support to the cell, facilitating cell communication and signaling, and recognizing and binding to specific molecules like hormones or antigens.
phospholipids and cholesterol are the main compounds that form the barrier to the movement of hydrophilic materials across biological membranes. The hydrophobic tails of the phospholipids create a barrier that prevents the passage of hydrophilic substances. Cholesterol helps maintain the fluidity and stability of the membrane.
