How does material enter and leave a cell?

Materials can exit the cell using exocitosis. Endocitosis is when cells enter the cell by the cell forcing the material to enter. Osmosis and diffusion are also ways that materials can enter/exit the cell. Remember, the cell membrane is made up of protein channels and fat layers!
