The ability of cell membrane to allow materials to pass through it is called permeability. All cells are bound with cell membrane. Selective permeability of cell membrane allows certain molecules or ions to pass through it by means of either active or passive transport. This cell membrane can also block passage of materials depending on the conditions of the cell.
