Different Types of Cell Movement

Diffusion is used to explain that the spread of particles in random motions from areas of higher

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion).  Facilitated diffusion is a kind of passive transport that gives permission for substances to cross the membrane with the help of special transport proteins.  (http://biology.about.com/od/cellularprocesses/ss/diffusion_2.htm).  Active transport is when the cells  move the materials in opposite directions that is against the concentration gradient and energy is used in this process. (http:www.biologycorner.com/bio1/active.html).  Endocytosis is the process where a cell takes material in the cell by infolding the cell membrane.  Exocytosis is the process where a cell releases a huge amounts of material. (both from Biology:Prentice Hall Textbook).  Osmosis is the movement of water through selective permeability (Biology textbook).
