Does the size or the speed of a molecule determines whether it can pass through the pores of a membrane?

Yes, both the size and the speed of a molecule can determine whether it can pass through the pores of a membrane. Generally, smaller molecules are able to pass through pores more easily than larger molecules. Additionally, the speed of a molecule can affect its ability to pass through a membrane if the pores have a restriction based on speed.
