It's called passive transport for a cell's membrane. (I checked with my science teacher)

What moves materials in a cell membrane without using energy?

Passive transport processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion move materials across the cell membrane without requiring energy. Diffusion occurs when molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration, while facilitated diffusion involves the help of protein channels to facilitate the movement of specific molecules.


How does the movement of materials across the cell membrane relate to an organism's survival-?

It can allow nutrients to enter a cell without compromising the integrity of the cell. Semipermeable membranes abound in nature.


Which term refers to movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cell's energy?

passive transportPassive transport is the term. Active transport is moving of materials WITH energy.Passive transportpassive transportdiffusionDiffusion, but if it's water then it's called osmosis. They're the same basic thing though.diffusion


How do lipid or oil get through plasma cell membrane?

Lipids and oils are able to move through the plasma cell membrane via simple diffusion. The lipid bilayer structure of the membrane allows for the passive and selective movement of non-polar molecules, such as lipids and oils, without the need for energy input.


What is one way osmosis and diffusion are similar?

Both osmosis and diffusion are passive processes that do not require energy input from the cell. They both involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to reach equilibrium.

What is energy free movement of materials through a cell membrane?

Energy-free movement of materials through a cell membrane is called passive transport. This process includes diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion, where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the input of energy.

In osmosis which membrane provides net movement of water without movement of NaCl?

A selectively permeable membrane allows water molecules to pass through but restricts the movement of larger solute particles like NaCl. In osmosis, water will move from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through the membrane, causing a net movement of water without the movement of NaCl.

How is passive transport from active transport?

The movement of materials across the cell membrane without using cellular energy is called passive transport. The movement of materials against a concentration difference is known as active transport. Active transport requires energy.


What are the three process that involves the entrance and exit of materials in the cell?

The three main processes involved in the entrance and exit of materials in the cell are endocytosis (cells taking in materials through vesicles), exocytosis (cells expelling materials through vesicles), and passive diffusion (movement of molecules across the cell membrane from high to low concentration without energy input).
