|
As permeability decreases, the particle size decreases.
|
|
As permeability increases, the particle size remains constant.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -But permeability is a different thing. It increases as particle size increases. By definition, permeability is a MEASURE OF EASE with which fluids will flow though a porous rock, soil or sediment.
Detailed explanation-2: -The impact of such facilitated mechanisms in the cellular transport of larger druglike molecules is not yet clear. Analyses of cell permeability in traditional small-molecule drug space indicate that transporter-mediated efflux increases with greater molecular size.
