Answer:

Since the cell membrane is semi-permeable, the likelihood of substance L entering the cell attached to a large protein is lower than that of substance L free in the culture. Substance L enters the cell membrane through active transport, but the cell membrane may block the larger protein, thus blocking substance L, if it is attached to the large protein.
