No. Active transport requires the use of Energy (powered by ATP) to move solutes against their concentration gradients - the carrier proteins in the cell's (plasma) membrane picks up what needs to come in (solute or solvent), rather than letting it "flow" into the cell.
Osmosis is a type of passive transport -- it requires no energy and only lets solvents (water) pass through.
What else can I help you with?
Is active or passive transport used in protecting the lysosomes?
yes because it uses lysosomes to digest unwelcome molecules
What is an example of active transport through a 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.
How does active transport of glucose cause osmosis?
Osmosis is the transport of water across semi permeable plant membrane. When glucose molecules actively transport to the plant they lower the water potential of the plant and therefore water moves in to balance that. This is how active transport assists osmosis.
What is the relationship between osmosis and active transplant?
I think you mean "Active Transport" The main differences between the two is that osmosis does not use energy and active transport does. Also osmosis moves from a higher concentration of solution to a lower concentration, whereas active transport can be used to go from a lower concentration of solution to a higher concentration.
What is the difference between active transport and pass transport?
Pass transports require no energy and active requires energy. Osmosis is when it travels through water.
How is active transport different from osmosis?
active transport uses energy
How is active transport different from osmosis's?
active transport uses energy
What is Comparison between active transport and osmosis?
active transport requirs energy; osmosis requires very little to no 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.
Is diffusion and osmosis both active transport?
no they are passive transport
How does active transport differ from osmosis?
weener!
Is osmosis active or a passive transport?
Passive.
How is active transport diffrent from osmosis?
Active transport occurs when molecules are moved from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. The cell membrane acts as a semi-permeable barrier during the process. Energy is required for active transport. Osmosis is a type of passive transport. Passive transport is similar to active transport except it requires no energy and molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis occurs only if the molecules moving across the cell membrane are WATER molecules.
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.
What is active transport in a plant?
a houseplant in dry soil is this process diffusion,osmosis,or active transport
Is osmosis active trasport or passive trasport?
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
What is the difference between active transport and osmosis?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane, and does not require the input of energy. Active transport requires energy input.
