Osmosis and diffusion are examples of passive transport?

Yes, osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport.


Does osmosis involve transport proteins?

No, osmosis does not involve transport proteins. Osmosis is the passive movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane in response to a concentration gradient. Transport proteins are involved in facilitated diffusion and active transport processes.

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 osmosis active trasport or passive trasport?

Difference between osmosis and active transport?

The difference between osmosis and active transport is that osmosis takes place only in water molecule and active transport takes place in takes place in the internal lining of the small intestine. 2 osmosis takes place in presence of concentration gradient and active transport against the concentration gradient.


Does osmosis involve the use of transport proteins?

No, osmosis does not involve the use of transport proteins. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Transport proteins are not involved in this process.
