Membrane is thin and Êsemi permeable to allow Êmaterials to enter and exit easily. In addition, it Êconsist Êof protein Êand phospholipid bilayer, Êprotein layer release ÊproteinÊÊmolecules which act as carriers across the membrane.Ê Whereas, phospholipid bilayer Êallow small molecules such as water molecules to pass through quicker.

Is phagocytosis active or passive transport?

During phagocytosis, the phagocyte is involved with engulfing a smaller particle of organism (or another cell). There is no passive or active transport as such.
