The cell has two ways of "eating" substances. The first is active transport. This is when the cell engulfs the food molecule or substance and the food becomes part of the cell. The second way is called diffusion. Substances that are outside the cell, protein for example, are so small that they can move through the cell's membrane without any trouble.
