The right answer is D) selectively permeable.

Biological membranes only let certain molecules or ions pass, and not at the same speed. This selective permeability is the result of differential passive permeability, which more or less limits the crossing of particles driven by osmotic and electrostatic forces, and biological permeability or permeation, which ensures active transport by enzymatic mechanisms.

Empirical evidence is obtained using our human senses, which statement
Inessa05 [86]

The statement “This type of evidence can be checked by others” best explains the importance of empirical evidence in science.

Explanation:

There are all kinds of evidence used in science, but empirical evidence is obtained as a result of <u>repeated experiments and observations</u>. This evidence is used to either support or argue against a scientific theory. Empirical evidence is the preferred evidence since this kind of evidence can be peer reviewed, i.e. reviewed by other scientists and/or researchers. In other words, the experiment can be redone, and the <u>evidence can be tested</u>.
