The glucose transporter that is activated by insulin (glut 4) is a prime example.

Osmosis is an example of passive transport, specifically a type of facilitated diffusion. In osmosis, water molecules move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the use of energy.
Yes, facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport. The cell does not expend any energy; integral proteins in the cell's surface membrane act as carriers.

Entry of CO2 in the leaves during photosynthesis and its exit during night. Absorption of water by root hairs is another example of facilitated diffusion.
