Which part of the cell is affected by the movement of molecules through diffusion, osmosis, and active transport? cytoplasm chromosome cell membrane cell wall
Materials may move into and out of cells through the cell membrane of a cell. The movement may involve any of the three types of cellular transport, that is active transport, osmosis, or diffusion.
Active transport involves the movement of materials against a concentration gradient, using energy in the form of ATP.
Diffusion involves the movement of solute molecules from a region of lower concentration to a region of high concentration through the cell membrane.
While osmosis involves the movement of water molecules across a cell membrane from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.
