Yes, cells have a selectively permeable membrane that allows liquids, and other chemicals to pass through, depending on the concentration inside the cell. The process of water moving from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration is 'osmosis'. Also learn to look things up on wikipedia.

Molecules can pass through the cell membrane of the human cell?

Yes, molecules can pass through the cell membrane of human cells through various mechanisms such as simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, or active transport. The size, polarity, and concentration gradient of the molecule influence how it crosses the cell membrane.

What is the process by which tiny particles can pass through the cell membrane?

Small particles can pass through the cell membrane by simple diffusion. If the particles are water, the process is given a special name: osmosis.


How is the cell membrane involved in regulating osmosis?

It is semi-permeable to water, in which water can pass it through the double lipid layer or through proteins crossing the double layer of the cell membrane.


What is the part of the cell that materials pass through?

Materials pass through the cell membrane, which acts as a barrier between the cell's interior and the external environment. The cell membrane is selectively permeable, allowing certain substances to pass through while blocking others.
