Question
the cell membrane is semipermeable and has little holes, this means
only select molecules can get into out of the cell
proteins cannot get into the cell
water cannot get into the cell
rewatch
The semi - permeable nature of the cell membrane means it allows only certain molecules to pass through. This is due to its structure and the presence of channels and transporters. Small molecules like water can often pass through via osmosis, and proteins can sometimes enter the cell through endocytosis or other mechanisms. But in general, only select molecules can cross the semi - permeable cell membrane.
