Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
Is diffusion and osmosis types of active tranport?
No they're both passive transport
Osmosis and diffusion are examples of passive transport?
Yes, osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport.
What are two forms of passive transport of a cell?
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.
Give 2 examples of passive transport?
Passive transport is when molecules pass freely through the membrane moving from the higher concentration area to the region of lower concentration. Three examples of this are diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
What 3 ways can substances enter and leave a cell?
Substances can move in and out of a cell in several ways. Diffusion is when a substance will distribute itself in or out of a cell until the distribution on both sides of the cell is balanced. Active transport is when a cell transports a substance across the cell membrane that would not normally be able to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water from areas with few dissolved dissolved substances to areas with high dissolved substances.
Movement of large molecules into a cell is called?
hydrogen bondingANS2:Substances are moved into cells by both active transport and passive transport. An example of active transport is "Endocytosis". An example of passive transport is "Diffusion".
What two requirements distinguish osmosis from diffusion?
Diffusion and osmosis are both types of passive transport. The two requirements that distinguish osmosis from diffusion are the presence of a membrane and the type of substance.
12 Osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport?
Yes.
Are diffusion and osmosis active transport?
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.
What does osmosis and diffusion have in comin?
They are both a form of passive transport. By the way it is spelt "common"
Does active transport rely on the process of diffusion?
Yes except, diffusion is a passive process (no energy is required) whereas active transport requires energy. this is because it is moving UP then concentration gradient whereas diffusion moves DOWN it
