Solution

The correct option is B False
A permeable membrane allows all the substances to move freely across the membrane. But the plasma membrane is made up of lipids arranged in bilayer which allows only hydrophobic substances to pass through it and it is selectively permeable in nature. Hence, the given statement is false.
So, the correct option is 'False'.
