How do neutral solutes move across the plasma membrane? Can the polar molecules also move across it in the same way? If not, then how are these transported across the membrane?

Natural solutes move across the plasma membrane due to their non-polar nature.Rate of movement depend upon the concentration gradient and solubility of solutes.
No polar molecules cannot do so and they require special carrier methods wgich are of different types i.e. ion transport mechanism ,Avtive transport etc

HLO MATE HERE IS UR ANSWER.

⭐. Neutral solutes move across the membrane by diffusion along the concentration gradient ie.., from higher concentration to the lower.

⭐. No, the polar molecules cannot pass through the non polar bilayer.

⭐. The polar molecules require a carriervprotein of the membrane to facilitate their transport across the membrane.

⭐. A few ions are transported across the membrane against the concentration gradient.

⭐. It is an energy dependent process .

⭐. ATP is utilised and is known as active transport.
