Yes, bacterial cell membranes are semi-permeable, meaning they allow certain substances to pass through while restricting others. This selective permeability is primarily due to the lipid bilayer structure of the membrane and the presence of proteins that facilitate the transport of specific molecules. Nutrients and waste products can enter or exit the cell through various mechanisms, including diffusion and active transport. This property is essential for maintaining the cell's internal environment and overall function.
