Question

the term ______ refers to a membrane that allows some things to pass through it, but not others. multiple choice glycocalyx phospholipid bilayer selectively permeable carrier - mediated specificity

Explanation:

A selectively - permeable membrane allows certain substances to pass through while restricting others. The glycocalyx is a carbohydrate - rich layer on the cell surface. The phospholipid bilayer is the structural basis of the cell membrane but doesn't directly describe the property of allowing some things through and not others. Carrier - mediated refers to transport mechanisms involving carrier proteins. Specificity is a general term not directly related to the membrane property described.

Answer:

C. selectively permeable
