Answer 1

The statement that describes the ability of the cell membrane to allow various substance to move through is that the cell membrane is preamble and allows only certain substances to pass through.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is preamble, hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules diffuse through lipid layer. The integral membrane proteins enable large polar molecules to pass through the membrane.

Some molecules can cross the membrane like hydrocarbons and oxygen. Whereas the large molecules like glucose and sugars cannot cross. The water pass through lipid.
