How do cells move large molecules into and out of the cell?

Large molecules are typically moved into the cell during a process called "endocytosis". During this process, a molecule binds to a "receptor" protein, a cell surface protein which is anchored within the cell membrane. The cell then begins to fold the membrane inward, forming a pocket called an "invagination" which contains the molecule bound to the receptor. Eventually, the invagination pinches off the cell membrane and becomes a small vacuole, or an "endosome". These endosomes can be moved throughout the cell to where the large molecules are needed or processed. If the large molecule is needed within the cytoplasm, it is transported out of the endosome through a protein complex that forms a pore across the endosome membrane. These transport processes all require the use of ATP.

Why can starch molecules not pass through dialysis tubing?

It is a complicated molecule. the starch molecule is to large to be transported through the cell membrane. it therefore has to be broken down if it is to go though the protein channels.
