Well, isn't that a happy little question! Pumping air into a tire is actually neither diffusion osmosis nor active transport. It's more like good old-fashioned physical work - you're simply using a pump to increase the pressure inside the tire. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy accidents!
The four main kinds of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration and osmosis. Osmosis always deals with the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane. Water always moves toward the side that is higher in solutes (mainly salt). It does this to balance the two sides. Osmosis always follows salt is one of the best ways to remember this.
Active Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane through the expenditure of energy. Passive Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane without the expenditure of energy. Bulk Transport is the type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are type of passive transport.
Passive.
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
In cells, diffusion moves by facilitated diffusion, active transport, ABC transporters, group translocation or osmosis. Some of these move molecules from a low concentration to a higher and against the gradient.Simple diffusion moves molecules from a high concentration to a lower concentration.
no they are passive transport
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
The cellular function that is missing in dead cells is active transport (solute pumping). Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, a process that cannot occur if the cell is no longer metabolically active. Osmosis, diffusion, and dialysis can still occur in dead cells as they do not require energy expenditure by the cell.

Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
Osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, 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.
No. (Active xport would be in the opposite direction.)
No, diffusion and osmosis are passive transport processes, not active transport. Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, while osmosis is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane. Active transport, on the other hand, requires energy and moves substances against their concentration gradient.
it moves by diffusion, osmosis and active transport
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane, and does not require the input of energy. Active transport requires energy input.
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.
