It's called passive transport. An example of passive transport is O2 (Oxygen), and CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). They both use a "key" to get into the cell, in this case, the key is the chemical formula of O2. Things without a key require the cell to use energy to use endocytosis and exocytosis.

(At least that's what my 8th grade science teacher told me!)

What molecules will move easily across the cell membrane: large proteins, starch, water, or DNA?

Water is the molecule that will move easily across the cell membrane. It can cross the membrane through special channels called aquaporins. Large proteins, starch, and DNA are too large to pass through the membrane without assistance.
