All living things are ____________________ up of tiny units ____________________ cells . The cells are ____________________ by a covering ____________________ a membrane . The membrane controls what moves in and out of the cell . Cells need many kinds of materials in order to ____________________ . They must have water , oxygen , glucose ( sugar ) , sodium , potassium and a variety of other minerals . The body ____________________ to have a delivery system to get these materials where they need to go . ____________________ ____________________ , every cell produces waste materials that it needs ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ . The body ____________________ to have a method of waste collection and ____________________ . Like a fl eet of trucks form a transport system to the pick up and deliver goods in the world , the body ____________________ a transport system , too . There are two types of transport : active transport , and passive transport . Passive transport is easiest for the cells because they don't need to use any energy to make it happen . Diffusion ____________________ the simplest and most common form of passive transport . During the diffusion process , tiny particles of the materials that need to be delivered to the cells are spread through either a gas , like oxygen , or a liquid , like water . Areas with high concentrations of the materials slowly diffuse them to areas of low concentration of the materials . Osmosis is a unique form of passive transport that ____________________ water ____________________ pass through the cell membrane but keeps most other materials out .
