| Front | How does the structures in the cell membrane determines its permeability properties? (6mks) |
|---|---|
| Back | It has a phospholipid bi layer Its only permeable to lipid soluble molecules / oxygen It is impermeable to water soluble molecules / ions / polar Contains aquaporins (proteins) that provide permeability to water It has transport proteins (channel, carrier) that allows water soluble to pass through Which makes it partially permeable |
