Through osmosis, which basically is when water moves to where there is less water through a semi-permeable membrane ( a membrane thin enough for smaller substances like water to get through but not large substances).

Selective permeable


Water passes into or out of a cell?

Water enters and exits a cell by osmosis, which is the diffusion of water.


What is the part of a cell where charges enter and exit?

The cell membrane is the part of a cell where charges (ions) enter and exits. It regulates the movement of ions in and out of the cell, maintaining the cell's internal environment and allowing for communication with the external environment.


When sodium ions enter the cell water exits to maintain fluid balance?

I am not sure what you mean by fluid balance. Diffusion, however, tends towards having the same density of ions on either side of a semipermeable membrane. Therefore, I would think that if extra sodium ions entered the cell, then extra water must enter to keep the same density.


What process cause the water to enter or leave the cell?

the process that causes the water to enter and leave the cell is diffusion


When a person is dehydrated does water enter or leave the cell?

The water leaves the cell.


What are two structures that a material would have to cross to enter the cytoplasm of a plant cell?

In order to enter the cytoplasm of a plant cell, a material would have to cross the plasma membrane and then the cell wall. The plasma membrane regulates what enters and exits the cell, while the cell wall provides structural support and protection.


What do cell membranes allow?

Cell membranes allow the regulation of what enters and exits the cell, maintaining cell homeostasis. They also provide structural support and separate the cell's internal environment from the external environment. Additionally, cell membranes facilitate cell communication and recognition.


Why does water enter a cell that is placed in a hypotonic solution?

water enters a cell by osmosis, causing the cell to swell.

Water, carbon dioxide and oxygen can enter a cell through the plasma membrane.


What part of the cell controls what exits and enters the cell?

The cell membrane


What maintains a chemical balance within a cell by regulating the materials that enter and leave the cell?

The cell membrane, specifically through the process of selective permeability, helps to maintain a chemical balance within a cell by controlling the substances that can enter and exit the cell. This regulation ensures that essential molecules are able to enter the cell while harmful substances are kept out, contributing to the overall health and function of the cell.
