Movement of waste materials · In animals, the removal of waste materials occurs via simple diffusion · In the liver, waste material, urea, is Simple diffusion is defined as the process in which a substance moves through a semipermeable membrane or in a solution without any help from transport proteins
Not exactly There are two forms of diffusion across cell membranes: simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion Facilitated diffusion uses Diffusion Cell membranes are selectively permeable This means that they allow the movement of some molecules freely across them, but do not allow the free
