No. Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport because it does not require the cell to expend energy.

What word includes diffusion osmosis and facilitated diffusion?

The word that includes diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion is "passive transport." These are all types of passive transport processes where molecules move across a membrane without the need for energy input.

What are the 3 methods of passive transport?

The three methods of passive transport are simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. Simple diffusion involves the movement of molecules across a membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion uses carrier proteins to help larger or charged molecules move across the membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.


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).


Are aquaporins involved in osmosis or facilitated diffusion?

Aquaporins are involved in osmosis by facilitating the movement of water molecules across cell membranes. They do not participate in facilitated diffusion, which involves the transport of solutes across membranes with the help of carrier proteins.


Why the osmosis involves the movement of molecules via special transport protein?

facilitated diffusion


Three types of passive transport?

There are three forms of passive transport, or the movement of biochemical and other atomic or molecular substances across the cell membranes. They are: osmosis, simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion, and filtration.
