Kinetic energy weakens the cell membrane due to increased temperatures. The higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy, which will eventually cause the cell membrane to rupture.

What influences the movement of ions and molecules across cell membranes?

A membrane potential is basically the difference between the inside and outside of the cell. Ions are charged, and so will change the membrane potential (the difference between charges on the inside and outside) when they move. Please see the related link below which includes a diagram of how ions affect membrane potential.


What is the different between active transport and passive transport of molecules across the cell membrane?

In an active transport, the cell uses energy (ATP) to transport the particle into the cell. Also, the particle moves through a "hallway" type thing. In a passive transport, the cell does not need energy (ATP) to transport the particle into the cell. Also, the particle just bursts through the cell membrane to get inside.
