Answer:

Selectively permeable or semipermeable means specific substances are allowed to pass through the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is selectively or semipermeable in nature because the plasma membrane allow only specific molecules such as nonpolar substances or hydrophobic substances such as steroidshormone to pass through it and prevent the passage of polar solute molecules such as water,glucose.
