The permeability of a membrane refers to its ability to allow substances to pass through it. This characteristic is influenced by factors such as the membrane's composition, the size and charge of the molecules, and the presence of specific transport proteins. Generally, membranes are selectively permeable, meaning they permit certain molecules to cross while restricting others, thus maintaining homeostasis within the cell. Lipid bilayers, for example, typically allow small, nonpolar molecules to diffuse freely, while larger or charged molecules require specific transport mechanisms.

Which feature of a memebrane describes whether molecules can cross the membrane?
permeability
What property describes the plasma membrane's ability to regulate movement of molecules into and out of the cell?
Selective permeability is the property that describes the plasma membrane's ability to regulate the movement of molecules into and out of the cell, allowing only certain substances to pass through while restricting others. This selective permeability is achieved through the presence of various proteins and lipid components in the membrane.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow material to pass through it called?

Unit of relative permeability?
Relative permeability does not have a unit as it is a dimensionless quantity that describes how easily a fluid can flow through a porous medium (such as a rock or soil) relative to the fluid's flow in a vacuum. It is typically represented as a dimensionless ratio ranging from 0 to 1.
Which organelle are lipids components of the cell membrain assembled?

What term describes how easily a fluid can pass through solid material?
You may be thinking of the term permeability, which is used when measuring a porous material's ability to allow fluids to pass through it.Hydraulic conductivity describes the ease with which water will flow through pores and fractures, and is influenced by the permeability of the material.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow material to pass through it called?
