What else can I help you with?
What term identifies the concept that some substances can move freely across a cell membrane while other substances must be carried across by proteins?
selective permeability
What is selective permeability and why is it important to cells?
It permits to enter different important ingredients and different types of salts to cytoplasm which is important to cell growth, function and metabolism but don't allow to transmit any unnecessary and harmful constituents such as unnecessary amino acid, not to use in protein synthesis then, different types of harmful drug which we take as medicine. So we can see it allow only selected item. That's why it is called as SelectivelyPermeable Membrane.
What is the solubility theory of membrane permeability?
the solubility theory of membrane permeability simply describes that a membrane can only be freely permeable to substances that can dissolve in it. this was the most basic theory posed to explain how substances passed through membranes of cells. another way of explaining this is that substances that can freely or passively diffuse across membranes when they have the same chemical or physical properties as the membrane.
For a cell to maintain the appropriate balance of materials inside and outside of the cell materials must be able to move in and out of the cell The degree in which materials are able to flow fre?
The degree to which materials can freely move in and out of a cell is regulated by the cell membrane. The cell membrane is selectively permeable, allowing certain molecules to pass through while restricting others. This helps the cell maintain its internal balance and respond to its external environment effectively.
Why is the cell membrane said to be selectively permeable?
Because the Cell Must Be Selectively Reactive.If the Cell was not selectively permeable it it would allowed Virus's in, and they could potentially lose essential nutrients because everything would flow in and out of the cell and destroy it

selective permeability
What is membrane permeability?
Membrane permeability refers to the ability of molecules, substances, etc. to pass through the membrane. For example, the cell membrane is referred to as 'semi-permeable' because it allows some molecules (such as water) to enter, and stops other molecules (such as sodium ions) from passing through the membrane. If these want to get into the cell, they must then rely on proteins in the cell membrane to let them in.

Any material coming in or out of a cell must pass through this?
cell membrane
Why is the cell membrane called gatekeepers of the cell?
The cell membrane is a gatekeeper of the cell which means it chooses the cells intake. Any toxic substances will not be allowed in the cell. Water for example is a fluid that is perm permeable. Permeable means "allowing passage" and impermeable means "to not allow any passage". Cell membrane is made up of 2 layers of fat particles. Many of the protein are imbedded.

Organisms or fluids attempting to enter the cell body of a neuron must first pass through the?
cell membrane, which acts as a protective barrier around the neuron. This selective barrier controls the passage of substances in and out of the neuron to maintain its internal environment.
What controls which substances go in and out of cells?
Molecules in the cell membrane (plasma membrane) control which substances move or out of a cell.Phospholipids form a barrier to most compounds. To move through the phospholipid bilayer, molecules must be small and uncharged; examples are water, dissolved oxygen, and carbon dioxide. These move through the bilayer by diffusion(osmosis in the case of water).Other compounds must pass through proteins embedded in the phospholipid bilayer.Channel proteins allow the passage of molecules that are small enough and are not repelled by any charge around the pore (channel) of the protein. The movement of substances through channel proteins is called facilitated diffusion, being facilitated by the protein.Carrier proteins are highly selective, and move substances either by facilitated diffusion or by active transport, which requires energy. This energy may be supplied by the hydrolysis of ATP.
What must every cell have in order to maintain its integrity and to survive?
Every cell must have a cell membrane to maintain its integrity and to survive.
