Diffusion is a passive process that does not require energy and the movment of molecules depends upon the concentration gradient.

Passive.

Yes, passive diffusion is a spontaneous process.


Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?

Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.


Is diffusion of molecules across the cell membrane the most complex type of active?

Diffusion of molecules across the cell membrane is actually a passive process, not active. Active transport, which requires energy in the form of ATP, is a more complex process as it moves molecules against their concentration gradient.


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


Is diffusion active or passive transport of particles across the cell?

Passive.


Is facilitated diffusion ion channels an active or passive transport?

passive


Is facilitated diffusion active?

No. Facilitated diffusion is a type 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 it true diffusion is a type of active transport?

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
