Osmosis requires cell energy while active transport does not.
No. Osmosis is a passive method of transporting water. It moves water from a high concentration of water to a lower concentration of water. It is really simple diffusion but it is called osmosis because it involves water.
Osmosis is the membrane activity that does not require the expenditure of energy by the cell. It does not require any input of energy.
Two forms of passive transport (or transport not involving energy/ATP) are diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Another form is osmosis. Also keep in mind that passive transport is for smaller particles.
simple diffusion and osmosis
The cell does not need to use any ATP in order for osmosis to occur.
Osmosis does not require a cell to expand its own energy. Osmosis is a type of diffusion process for water.
osmosis involves water passing in and out of the cell
osmosis
It basically provides nutrients and energy to the cell.
Water moves in and out of the cell through the cell membrane by the process of osmosis when there is a concentration gradient.

No, it moves water across a partially permeable membrane (cell membrane) from an area of high concentration to an area of low concenration without energy
Passive Transport, and if your dealing with liquids its is Osmosis. Passive Transport is the act of transport with no use of energy: hence the word "Passive." But Active Transport is when it does use energy: hence the word "Active."
