Since photosynthesis primarily takes place in the leaves, it is essential that glucose can be transported out of the cell to other parts of the plant. The selectively permeable plasma membrane only allows certain molecules to
cross freely through the phospholipid bilayer.
Is glucose a molecule that is allowed to cross the selectively permeable membrane freely?

No it is to large of a molecule. It can not cross the membrane freely through simple diffusion. It moves across the membrane through facilitated diffusion. *Ignore the idiot who answered first, hope this helped

The scientific method is a series of steps followed by scientific investigators to answer specific questions about the natural world. it involves making observations, formulating a hypothesis, and conducting scientific experiments.the steps of the scientific method are •observation-the first step of the scientific method involves making an observation about something that interests you•question-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •hypothesis-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •experiment-once you've developed a hypothesis, you must design and conduct an experiment that will test it.•results-the results are where you report what happened in the experiment. •conclusion-the final step of the scientific method is developing a conclusion.i hope that this you : )
