| Why DNA cannot pass through a cell membrane? |
Hydrophobic nature . Hydrophilic nature. Size too big . All of these. |
| Hydrophilic nature. |
| DNA cannot pass through a cell membrane due to its hydrophilic nature. Deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) cannot pass through the cell membrane regardless of their size. DNA is a water-loving or hydrophilic molecule like the exterior of the cell membrane and therefore, it cannot pass through the phospholipid bilayer. |
