Solution

The correct option is C Fully permeable
A membrane is said to be permeable to a substance, if it allows the passage of the substance through it. This property is termed as permeability. The plant cell wall is permeable because it allows both solvent and solute molecules to pass through it. On the other hand, cuticle layer is impermeable because it does not allow both the solvent and the solute particles to pass through it.
