This is the best model of cell processes of small molecules easily passing between the phospholipids in the cell membrane.

So, the correct option is B.

Semi-permeable indicates that certain materials can pass through the cell membrane. Similar to how small molecules can easily pass between the phospholipids in the cell membrane and the holes in the tea bag that allow smaller particles to pass. The phospholipid membrane found in a cell is semi-permeable and composed of lipid bilayers.

A lipid bilayer and some intrinsic and extrinsic proteins are present in the cell membrane or plasma membrane, in accordance with the fluid-mosaic model. It makes it possible for tiny molecules to move freely across the phospholipids in the cell membrane. Due to its ability to regulate what entered and exited, the tea bag's membrane functioned like a cell membrane.

Polystyrene is an effective material for keeping honeybees warm in the winter because _______.
mezya [45]
Polystyrene is a good insulator as it has small air bubbles trapped inside of it. This means heat energy cannot flow through them therefore it is an effective material for keeping honeybees warm in the winter. Hope this helps :)
