Osmosis is the diffusion of water trough a selectively permeable membrane. However, water passes quite easily across most membranes. So it's mostly known as passive transport
What else can I help you with?
Is osmosis active trasport or passive trasport?
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
Is diffusion an example of active transport or passive transport?
Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
Is osmosis active or a passive transport?
Passive.
Is diffusion and osmosis both active transport?
no they are passive transport
Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
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.
Is sugar osmosis or passive transport or active transport?
Sugar transport can occur through both passive transport, such as facilitated diffusion or simple diffusion, and active transport, such as primary or secondary active transport processes. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane, so sugar transport itself is not osmosis.
Is coupled transport an example of active or passive transport?
Coupled transport is an example of active transport.
Is endocytois an example of active or passive transport?
Endocytosis is an example of active transport.
Is osmosis in passive or active transport?
Osmosis is a type of passive transport, as it does not require energy input from the cell to move molecules across a membrane. It relies on the concentration gradient to drive the movement of water molecules.
Is diffusion and osmosis types of active tranport?
No they're both passive transport
When are active and passive transport and their types used?
Active transport uses energy in the form of ATP. Active can force electrons against the electron gradient as in the electron transport chain. Passive transport does not use energy and an example of passive transpost is osmosis.
