What else can I help you with?
How do you know the wall of the small intestine must be partially permeable?
ask a scientest
How is semi permeable different from permeable?
I think that the difference is that a semi-permeable allows only certain things to pass through which are those that are small enough while permeable again i say i think allows almost all things to pass through
What does it mean to be semi permeable?
Permeable mean that it is full time. Semi-permeable is when it is only part of the time.
What type of barrier is produced by the phospholipids in the cell membrane?
A semi-permeable membrane, permeable to gases and small, non-charged particles.
What type of barrier is produce by the phospholipids in the cell membrane?
A semi-permeable membrane, permeable to gases and small, non-charged particles.
What does dialysis tubing represent in your model?
Dialysis Tubing is a type of semi or partially permeable membrane tubing made from regenerated cellulose or cellophane. It is used for diffusion, or more accurately osmosis. It allows the passage of small molecules but not larger ones. It is used in clinical circumstances to ensure a filtered flow of molecules, preventing the flow of larger solute molecules. Small molecules can be 'washed' out of a solution which is pumped through the tubing into a solvent, usually water, which surrounds it and in which they can be flushed away.
Where does osmosis occur in the digestive system?
Osmosis occurs in the small intestine during the process of nutrient absorption. Water moves through the semi-permeable membrane of the intestinal cells to maintain osmotic balance, allowing nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.
An example of semi-permeable?

What is the difference between semi-permeable and impermeable?
semi permeable lets some substances through and impermeable lets no substances through
Is tonoplast semi permeable?
Yes, the tonoplast is semi-permeable, allowing it to control the movement of molecules, such as water, ions, and other small molecules, in and out of the vacuole in plant cells. This selective permeability helps maintain the osmotic balance and regulate the internal environment of the cell.
What is the difference between a permeable and a semi permeable membrane?
There is no real difference other than the wording; both semi-permeable and partially-permeable mean the ability to allow some substances to pass.However, OCR examiners for AS Biology have said that you should "not use the term semi-permeable when referring to cell membranes that allow water and other solutes to cross them" but should "refer to them as partially permeable."
What does seminpermeable membrane do?
semi permeable membrane is semi-permeable or not completely permeable...it allows particles of a certain shap or size flow through but other shapes that are large or snaller cant fit through.
