Some solutes are able to pass directly through the lipid bilayer of a plasma membrane, whereas other solutes require a transport

protein or other mechanism to cross between the inside and the outside of a cell. The fact that the plasma membrane is permeable to some solutes but not others is what is referred to as selective permeability.
Which of the following molecules can cross the lipid bilayer of a membrane directly, without a transport protein or other mechanism? Select all that apply.

a) proteins
b) water
c) ions
d) sucrose
e) lipids
f) carbon dioxide
g) oxygen

Answer:

B, E, F, and G

Explanation:

Ions and large polar molecules cannot pass through the lipid bilayer. But more specifically, whether a molecule can pass through the membrane depends on its size and its electrical nature. The membrane is highly permeable to non-polar (fat-soluble) molecules.

Which tool is most likely used to produce a clear image of very tiny structures inside a cell?
Oksanka [162]
Depends on the magnification you are looking for... usually, a light microscope is enough (1000x max magnification)...

An electron microscope is powered by high energy beams and can magnify many times higher than the light microscope (where magnification is limited by the wavelength of light). The magnification of an EM is on the nano scale.

(P.S.: as a chemist, I'd always choose an EM over an optical microscope as I can always zoom in or out depending on my needs) ;)

But you know you can pick which ever you want but those facts are the some of the reasons why

(I really need this to boost my grade)<br><br> Label the permeable and impermeable rock layers
Papessa [141]

Answer: HI your question is incomplete but i will provide a general answer that can help you

answer : Permeable Rock layers allow the flow of fluid like substances through them, While Impermeable rock layers do not allow the flow of fluid like substance through them.

Explanation:

Permeable rocks are rocks containing pores through Fluid like substances can penetrate through in the rocks. examples of Permeable rocks are ; Sandstones and Chalk

While an Impermeable rock is a rock that does not allow the flow of fluid like substance through it due to the absence of pores in its rock layers . examples of such rock are ; Clay and marble  

Although some permeable rocks might exhibit low level of permeability as well but generally Rock sample with pores are classified as permeable rock layers.
