All types of cells, including prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, can utilize diffusion, osmosis, and active transport to transport molecules across their membranes. These processes are essential for maintaining proper internal conditions within the cell and for communicating with the external environment.
Substances can move in and out of a cell in several ways. Diffusion is when a substance will distribute itself in or out of a cell until the distribution on both sides of the cell is balanced. Active transport is when a cell transports a substance across the cell membrane that would not normally be able to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water from areas with few dissolved dissolved substances to areas with high dissolved substances.
Diffusion, osmosis, and active transport are methods by which a cell can move molecules across its membrane. Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane. Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
No, diffusion and osmosis are passive transport processes that do not require energy input from the cell. Active transport, on the other hand, requires the cell to use energy to move molecules across the cell membrane against their concentration gradient.
The cell membrane, specifically the phospholipid bilayer, is responsible for facilitating diffusion, osmosis, and active transport of molecules in and out of the cell. Various proteins, such as ion channels and pumps, play a role in active transport processes by assisting in the movement of specific molecules against their concentration gradients.

exocytosis which is when cells absorb materials from outside the cell by engulfing it with their cell membrane
Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. I'm assuming you mean active transport of plasma into a red blood cell.
The types of particle transport mechanisms by which particles move into and out of the cell are diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.

active transport and osmosis
Large molecules such as proteins cannot be moved into a cell by osmosis or diffusion due to their size and charge. These molecules require specialized transport mechanisms such as active transport to enter the cell.
Things can enter the cell through various processes, such as osmosis, diffusion and active transport. Passive transport (diffusion/osmosis) occurs because of a difference in concentration across the membrane.
Active transport expends energy, unlike osmosis and diffusion. Active transport is a way to move substances against concentration gradients in the cell membrane, so they need more energy to do so.
Two forms of passive transport (or transport not involving energy/ATP) are diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Another form is osmosis. Also keep in mind that passive transport is for smaller particles.
