Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane (from a low-concentration gradient to a high-concentration gradient).
Ummm how in the world does that answer the question "What kind of transport is Osmosis?" Is it Active or Passive that's what we want to know however I do believe from my information that the answer in which we are looking for is PASSIVE. PLEASE correct me if I am incorrect and excuse my mistake.
What else can I help you with?
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 or passive transport?
Osmosis is a passive transport process. It involves the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration without the use of energy.
Diffusion and osmosis are forms of what?
Diffusion and osmosis are forms of passive transport, which is the movement of particles across a membrane without requiring energy input from the cell.
What transport type is osmosis?
Osmosis is a passive transport process where water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. It does not require energy input from the cell.
What types of materials does osmosis transport?
Osmosis transports water molecules across a partially permeable membrane, such as a cell membrane. It does not transport other types of materials, like ions or larger molecules.
Passive transport of water is known as?
floating
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 diffusion and osmosis both active transport?
no they are passive transport
What is Comparison between active transport and osmosis?
active transport requirs energy; osmosis requires very little to no energy
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?
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
How is active transport different from osmosis?
active transport uses energy
How is active transport different from osmosis's?
active transport uses energy
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.
What are the types of passive transport?
diffusion and osmosis
