cell homeostasis
which process is characterized by the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy?
active transport
hypertonic transport
passive transport
dynamic equilibrium

Explanation:

Passive transport is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy. Active transport requires energy. Hypertonic is a term related to solution - concentration comparison, not a transport type in this context. Dynamic equilibrium is a state, not a transport process.

Answer:

passive transport
