The phospholipid bilayer is a structure of the cell membrane that is semi-permeable and allows molecules to move into and out of the cell. Small uncharged polar molecules such as oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse into the cell quickly. However, large uncharged polar molecules and ions cannot diffuse into the cell.
Hope that helps.
