Diffusion- | Movement from areas of high concentration (crowded) to areas of low concentration (less crowded). |
Osmosis- | The diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane. |
Passive Transport- | The movement of substances across a cell membrane without the use of energy by the cell. |
Active Transport- | The movement of substances across the cell membrane that requires the cell to use energy. |
Endocytosis- | The process by which a cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses the particle in a vesicle to bring the particle into the cell |
Exocytosis- | The process in which a cell releases a particle be enclosing the particle in a vesicle that then moves to the cell surface and fuses with the cell membrane. |
