In some online sources, the term "endoplasmosis" has been used informally to refer to:
- Endocytosis: This is the process by which cells take in substances from the outside environment by engulfing them.
Alternatively, it could potentially be a misspelling of:
- Endosmosis: Endosmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration (where there are fewer dissolved particles) to an area of higher solute concentration (where there are more dissolved particles). Here, water moves into the area with a higher concentration of solutes in an attempt to dilute and balance out the concentrations on both sides of the membrane.
