Answer: Selectively permeable means a membrane allows the passage of some molecules or ions and inhibits the passage of others. The capacity to filter molecular transport in this manner is called selective permeability.

Explanation:

Shortened: This means the membrane only allows some things to pass through while others can't.

Hope this helps! ^^

Answer:

Well ,Selectively permeable means a membrane allows the passage of some molecules or ions and inhibits the passage of others. The capacity to filter molecular transport in this manner is called selective permeability. or a property of cellular membranes that only allows certain molecules to enter or exit the cell. ... Movement across a selectively permeable membrane can occur actively or passively. ( best example would be ) For example, water molecules can move passively through small pores on the membrane.

Explanation:

hopefully that made sense they're really isn't a shortcut on explaining this type of topic but i tried to make it as understanding as possible, Good luck! :)

5. Which of the following best describes ALL the possible places carbon can go once it is in an acacia tree in the savanna?

**Read carefully, there are correct answers and then there is the BEST answer**

A. The carbon will either go back into the atmosphere by cellular respiration or into an herbivore when they eat the leaves of the acacia tree.

B. The carbon could go into a lion or be used to become part of the acacia tree (biosynthesis)

 C. The carbon would move to the soil where the decomposers would put it back into the atmosphere. 

D. The carbon could go into the atmosphere through cellular respiration, it could become part of the acacia tree (biosynthesis), it could die and move to the soil, or an herbivore could eat the leaves of the acacia tree
