The process that moves materials through a cell from low concentration to high concentration is called active transport

abhisar · Answer

Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

abhisar · Answer

Check the term membrane given in the question

shrutipande9 · Answer

i think it can also be active transport....because the ques doesnt specify solute conc...

anonymous · Answer

Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane in the direction against their concentration gradient, i.e. moving from a low concentration to a high concentration http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_transport
