This type of movement is called simple diffusion.
its your mama :p
It's called passive transport for a cell's membrane. (I checked with my science teacher)
A selectively permeable membrane allows water molecules to pass through but restricts the movement of larger solute particles like NaCl. In osmosis, water will move from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through the membrane, causing a net movement of water without the movement of NaCl.
Active Transport
The movement of materials across the cell membrane without using cellular energy is called passive transport. The movement of materials against a concentration difference is known as active transport. Active transport requires energy.
Movement of water across the cell membrane
It can allow nutrients to enter a cell without compromising the integrity of the cell. Semipermeable membranes abound in nature.
Passive transport processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion move materials across the cell membrane without requiring energy. Diffusion occurs when molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration, while facilitated diffusion involves the help of protein channels to facilitate the movement of specific molecules.
Beacuse without it life would not be worth living!
Passive transport is a non-energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient. This process includes simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.
If your cells can't get a steady stream of glucose, the cell will die.
