When water diffuses through a semipermeable membrane, such as a cell, it is called osmosis. In osmosis the concentration of water will differ on one side of the membrane from that of the other side. Water molecules will tend to diffuse from the high concentration side to the lower.

Movement of substances from higher to lower concentration across a semipermeable membrane that must have a specific protein carrier but no energy expenditure is called?
facilitated diffusion.
Membranes that allow only certain substances to pass through are called semipermeable and?
selectively-permeable membrane and the process of this type of diffusion is called fascilitated diffusion
The process where a nonpolar molecule can just passively get across a membrane is called?
facilitated diffusion
What process - movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration?
Osmosis is the process by which water moves across a selectively permeable membrane.
Diffusion is defined as a movement of molecules?
Is Diffusion the movement of molecules from a greater to a lesser concentration.
What is the release of waste or cell products called?
I think it is the semipermeable membrane
What is the term for the diffusion of water across the semipermeable membrane?
The term for the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane is osmosis. Osmosis is when the molecules of a solvent move from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated one. This equalizes the concentrations on each side of the member.
Movement of substances from higher to lower concentration across a semipermeable membrane that must have a specific protein carrier but no energy expenditure is called?
facilitated diffusion.
Membranes that allow only certain substances to pass through are called semipermeable and?
selectively-permeable membrane and the process of this type of diffusion is called fascilitated diffusion
What motion of particles across a membrane requires energy?
Movement across a membrane that does require energy is called active transport.
What is the movement of oxygen molecules over time from one side of the semipermeable membrane to the other side is known as?
it is called diffusion
The process where a nonpolar molecule can just passively get across a membrane is called?
facilitated diffusion
Cleansing the blood via a semipermeable membrane is called?
semipermeable
What is the diffusion of water across a selectively premeable membrane called?
It is osmosis .
The equal movement of water from either side of a semipermeable membrane is known as what?
The movement of of a solute like water is called osmosis.
What the diffusion of water across a cell's membrane?
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is called osmosis.
What is the process When proteins help molecules move across the membrane is called?
when proteins help molecules move across the membrane, it it called Facilitated Diffusion
