Question

Difference between freely permeable membrane and impermeable membrane

Open in App
Solution

A membrane is a material or tissue that acts as a barrier or divider between two regions. A permeable membrane allows all substances to flow freely across the membrane. A semi-permeable membrane allows some substances to cross the membrane, but not others. An impermeable membrane blocks the movement of all substances.
