No it is a mode of passive transport or water.

Does osmosis use cell energy?

No, osmosis is a passive process that does not require the use of cell energy (ATP). It is driven by the concentration gradient of solutes across a selectively permeable membrane.


Do cellular energy required for osmosis?

No, cellular energy is not directly required for osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration, driven by the concentration gradient. However, cellular energy may be required for maintaining ion concentration imbalances that influence osmosis.


Is osmosis polar or non-polar?

Osmosis is a phenomenon not a molecule !


What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?

Diffusion, Osmosis


How do diffusion and osmosis related to each other?

Diffusion and osmosis are both passive transport processes that involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane, while diffusion can involve the movement of any type of molecule. Both processes are driven by the concentration gradient and do not require energy input from the cell.


How can water be driven to move into and out of the Cell through the Cell membrane?

Through the process of Osmosis and, alternately, reverse Osmosis.


What do you call the membrane that allowed the movement of molecule?

osmosis


Is energy required for osmosis?

No - osmosis is a passive process. It is the movement of water into an area of higher solute concentration in order to achieve equilibrium. It can also sometimes be used to describe the movement of another solvent (not water) in a similar manner.


Why is osmosis an example of passive transport and not active transport?

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.


How are osmosis and diffusion defferent?

by... osmosis is the diffusion of water molecule across and athe diffusion is the process by which molecules speards from area


How does osmosis in plants work?

Osmosis is the movement of water across a selectively soluble membrane driven by a difference in solute concentrations. Osmosis in plants is the absorption of water from soil through the roots.


Is osmosis driven by hydrostatic fluid typically blood pressure in body?
