According to the research, the correct option is impermeable. It does not describe the plasma membrane.

<h3>What is the plasma membrane?</h3>

It refers to the structure that delimits each cell, keeping its internal environment separate from the exterior and also enables the development of compartments; allows or rejects the entry and/or exit of particles.

Selective permeability is the main characteristic of the plasma membrane, that is, its ability to allow or reject the entry of certain molecules into the cell.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the research, the correct option is impermeable. It does not describe the plasma membrane.
