Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Oxygen is a small, nonpolar molecule that can passively diffuse across the plasma membrane, moving from an area of higher concentration (outside the cell) to an area of lower concentration (inside the cell). Active transport, pinocytosis, and osmosis involve other mechanisms for moving molecules across the plasma membrane.
