Are water filters seletively permeable?

Question:

This is what makes a cell so efficient. The selectivity of the membrane allows different things to pass though at different times, depending on the needs of the cell.

Answers:

yes, they let the water permeate though (go though) and trap the dirt and other contaminates (impermeable to the contaminates, permeable to the water).

They are not selectively permeable.
