Somestuff Passes Through

a: Dialysis ~
b: coffee filter

What: "Put very simply, dialysis is like the filter you use to make your coffee. When you make coffee, you put ground coffee in the filter. Water can pass over the coffee and then through the filter. The coffee itself cannot go through. This is an example of a selectively permeable membrane. That's a fancy way of saying that some things can go through the membrane but not others."
