Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A selectively permeable membrane regulates the movement of molecules across it based on factors such as size, charge, and solubility, allowing some substances to pass through while restricting others. Impermeable means no molecules can pass across it, while hypotonic refers to a solution with lower solute concentration compared to another solution, and freely permeable means that all molecules can freely cross the membrane without any restriction.
