What controls movement of materials in and out of the cell?

The cell membrane regulates the movement of materials in and out of the cell through processes such as diffusion, osmosis, and active transport. Additionally, specific transport proteins embedded in the membrane facilitate the passage of certain molecules and ions.


What is the movement of materials through the membrane called?

It's either diffusion, osmosis or active transport. More information is needed to answer the question fully.


What is an example of active transport through a cell membrane?

Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. I'm assuming you mean active transport of plasma into a red blood cell.


What two processes transport materials through the semi-permable membrane?

Considering the cell membrane itself, processes include diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion (passive processes that do not require energy) and active transport (an active process that requires energy).


What is the pasive transpart of water through a membrane called?

The passive transport of water through a biological membrane is called osmosis.


Distinguish between active and passive transport?

Active Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane through the expenditure of energy. Passive Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane without the expenditure of energy. Bulk Transport is the type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are type of passive transport.


The movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?
