osmosis
The cell membrane contains protein channels and transporters that regulate the movement of materials in and out of the cell. These channels and transporters control the passage of specific substances into and out of the cell. The cell membrane itself does not have "tiny holes" but rather selective protein structures that facilitate the transport of molecules.
The presence of membrane proteins does not directly affect membrane permeability. Membrane proteins mainly play a role in transport, signaling, and cell recognition rather than impacting the permeability of the membrane itself.
Generally water and gases are described as fluid. In this context cell membrane is said to have a fluid mosaic model just because of it super flexible nature. Lipid bipolar molecules in the cell membrane can exhibit a flip flop movement. It can easily reseal after any breakage. So as fluid have an ease in changing their orientation likewise cell membrane posess a similar property. shankha LOL

The only key characteristic is "no nucleus" because that is what differentiates prokaryotes and eukaryotes. All cells have DNA, ribosomes, cytoplasm and a membrane. Cells WITHOUT a nucleus are prokaryotes
The opposite of osmosis is dialysis, which involves removing waste and excess substances from the blood by passing it through a membrane. In dialysis, solutes move from an area of high concentration to low concentration rather than water moving through a semi-permeable membrane like in osmosis.
Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane, while diffusion is a more general term that applies to the movement of any type of molecule from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion specific to water molecules.
The movement from the side on a shaft is called lateral movement or radial movement. This type of movement involves motion across the axis of the shaft, rather than along its length.
•also called the plasma membrane or plasmalemma •surrounds all cells •controls the movement of substances in and out of cells. •Largest cellular organelle in animals •contains a wide variety of molecules, Protein lipids •contains the majority of the cell's genetic material •found by Franz Bauer
The thylakoid (granum) lipid bilayer shares characteristic features with prokaryotic membranes and the inner chloroplast membrane. Thylakoid membranes are richer in galactolipids rather than phospholipids.
Oxygen, O2, is a small enough molecule that it diffuses diwn it's concentration gradient into the cell and rather easily foes through the plasma membrane. Many small molecules can do this.
When mud is involved in a mass movement it behaves as a liquid, flowing downhill and looking rather like a muddy flood.
Bacteria in general lack membrane-bound organelles and nuclei.
Cells that have no organized nucleus and no internal membrane structures are called prokaryotic cells. These cells are found in bacteria and archaea, and their genetic material is located in the cytoplasm rather than enclosed in a nucleus.

By saying nucleus, we mean that the DNA is contained in a membrane structure, that we call the nuclear membrane. However in prokaryotes (bacteria are examples!) the nucleus is not contained in a membrane structure. On the contrary, the DNA is rather suspended inside the cytoplasm itself in a compact form and is called a nucleoid.
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration. Osmosis is the net movement of water through a partially permeable membrane, from a solution of less negative water potential, to a solution of more negative water potential. Both Diffusion and osmosis occur down the concentration gradient. Basically they are the same thing, but osmosis is the diffusion of water in solution, rather then gaseous diffusion. We use the term osmosis to differentiate between gaseous transport and water movement. hope it helps..
