move down their concentration gradient across the plasma membrane Correct Ans-
facilitated diffusion
__________ is the name the transport mechanism in which water molecules move through a
selectively permeable membrane toward the solution with more impermeant (one that
cannot cross the membrane) Correct Ans-osmosis
