Osmosis. In this process water is moved in or out of the cell to reach an isotonic concentration. Meaning that both sides of the cell membrane will be of equal strength.
The cell membrane regulates what comes into the cell and what goes out of it. A cell controls what moves through the membrane by means of membrane proteins embedded in the phospholipid bilayerSome membrane proteins have carbohydrates attached to them, forming glycoproteins that act as identification markers.
The process of moving materials across the cell membrane without the expenditure of energy is called passive transfer
Diffusion allows waste chemicals to move down a concentration gradient. The chemicals will move from an area of high concentration (inside the cell) to areas of lower concentration (outside of the cell) via the cell membrane. This is also an example of passive transport.
The water moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the semi permiable membrane using osmosis.

No. That would be osmosis. Mitosis is the process of dividing into two cells.

ative transport
Water moves across the cell membrane through the process of osmosis.
The water moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the semi permiable membrane using osmosis.
Things like oxygen, CO2 and lipids cross the membrane with simple diffusion. Water can cross the membrane with osmosis when the water moves through a channel protein in the plasma membrane. Glucose, potassium, sodium etc. moves through a carrier protein in the membrane with the process of active movement. In the process of active movement energy is needed and it is given by the glucose or ATP from the cell.
The process that moves materials into cells is called endocytosis. During endocytosis, the cell membrane surrounds particles or substances outside the cell, forming a vesicle. The vesicle then fuses with the cell membrane and releases its contents into the cell.
Water moves in and out of the cell through the cell membrane by the process of osmosis when there is a concentration gradient.

This process is known as active transport; needing ATP energy to complete the process.
