How does thyroxine pass through the plasma membranes?
diffusion. it is lipophilic and is able to pass through the PM. thyroxine is not water soluble and is the reason why it requires a carrier protein (albumin) for circulation.
What passes through a cell using passive transport?
Small uncharged molecules like oxygen and carbon dioxide can pass through a cell using passive transport, which includes processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Water can also pass through a cell membrane through a process known as osmosis.
What passes through the plasma membrane by way of diffusion?
Small, non-polar molecules such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and lipid-soluble substances can pass through the plasma membrane by diffusion. Water can also move through the membrane via a special type of diffusion called osmosis.
What is the process by which tiny particles can pass through the cell membrane?
Small particles can pass through the cell membrane by simple diffusion. If the particles are water, the process is given a special name: osmosis.
What allows water molecules to pass through?
Water molecules are able to pass through cell membranes via specialized proteins called aquaporins. Aquaporins facilitate the movement of water across membranes by creating a channel for water molecules to pass through while preventing other molecules from entering. This selective permeability helps to regulate the flow of water in and out of cells.
What allows water to pass through?
water can pass through cell membranes by osmosis- similar to diffusion

How do ions pass through the membrane?
Osmosis and diffusion
What molcule can pass through a lipid bilayer by simple diffusion with no assistance from proteins?
Carbon.water molecules,glucose molecules can pass through lipid bilayer by simple diffusion

What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.

How can polar molecules pass through cell membranes?
Through facilitated diffusion
How do paramecium get oxygen?
Paramecium obtain oxygen through diffusion across their cell membrane. This process allows oxygen to pass from the surrounding water into the cell where it is used for cellular respiration to produce energy.
What substance can pass though cell membranes by diffusion?
water
