4. What substance is not moving through the membrane? Why?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: The membrane is selectively permeable because substances do not cross it indiscriminately. Some molecules, such as hydrocarbons and oxygen can cross the membrane. Many large molecules (such as glucose and other sugars) cannot. Molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide have no charge and pass through by simple diffusion. Polar substances, with the exception of water, present problems for the membrane. While some polar molecules connect easily with the outside of a cell, they cannot readily pass through the lipid core of the plasma membrane.
