Protein molecules are responsible for membrane transport. In passive transport diffusion is the phenomenon in which molecules flow naturally from areas of high concentration to lower concentrations.
active transport and osmosis
Proteins that carry out passive transport include channel proteins and carrier proteins. Passive transport is "passive" because it does not use energy. The use of passive transport is also called "facilitated diffusion." Proteins that carry out passive transport includes the proton pump and the sodium-potassium pump; these require energy to function.
passive transport does not require energy eg. diffusion and osmosis. Therefore, osmosis is a passive transport. Active transport requires energy eg. a molecule going from a low concentration from a high concentration.
No, osmosis is a form of passive transport.
Passive transport is a means of moving biochemicals, and other atomic or molecular substances, across membranes. Unlike active transport, this process does not involve chemical energy. Passive transport is dependent on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, is dependent on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins. The four main kinds of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration and osmosis. An example would be osmosis; in osmosis, water molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Carrier proteins are sometimes used during passive transport.
Carrier proteins
They convert proteins and lipid into glycol proteins and glyco lipids.They involve in material transport mainly.

No - neither of these require any energy input. They are therefore examples of passive transport. They both involve movement from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.
osmosis is something with water
Yes, osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport.
