Osmosis requires cell energy while active transport does not.
Facilitated transport.
When water diffuses through a semipermeable membrane, such as a cell, it is called osmosis. In osmosis the concentration of water will differ on one side of the membrane from that of the other side. Water molecules will tend to diffuse from the high concentration side to the lower.
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.
The movement of things through the cell would be called diffusion. If it is water we are talking about then it is called osmosis. diffusion and osmosis are examples of inactive transport. Active transport involves specific proteins in the cell that pull material in the cell though the cell membrane.
Active transport occurs when molecules are moved from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. The cell membrane acts as a semi-permeable barrier during the process. Energy is required for active transport. Osmosis is a type of passive transport. Passive transport is similar to active transport except it requires no energy and molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis occurs only if the molecules moving across the cell membrane are WATER molecules.
The transport of molecules into and out of the cell through osmosis and diffusion

Osmosis requires cell energy while active transport does not.
Osmosis, Passive Transport, and Active Transport
Facilitated transport.
The process by which substances enter and exit the cell is called cellular transport. It primarily occurs through two main mechanisms: passive transport, which does not require energy, and active transport, which requires energy expenditure by the cell. Examples of passive transport include diffusion and osmosis, while examples of active transport include endocytosis and exocytosis.

No. Osmosis is a form of passive transport.
