Facilitated Diffusion
2. The movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration is called:
Diffusion
Osmosis
Active Transport
Endocytosis
3. Passive transport does not require the cell to expend .
4. The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration is called .
5. In facilitated diffusion, molecules move across the membrane with the help of proteins.
