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.

Is diffusion an example of active transport or passive transport?

Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).

Electrochemical gradient is used to move substances through a membrane in active transport.


What is the movement of material through a cell membrane that requires energy?

Active transport. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of this.


What is an example of a situation that depends on active transport?

When food moves across a cell membrane, it requires Active Transport.


What is the definition of active transport?

active transport is an energy reqiuring process in which transport proteins bind with particles and move them through a cell membrane


What is the name of the membrane that allows the movement of water and substances to move through the process of active transport and passive transport?

The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is responsible for regulating the movement of water and substances through processes like active transport and passive transport. It acts as a selectively permeable barrier, allowing certain molecules to pass through while blocking others.


Distinguish between active and passive transport?

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.


What transport may need to use energy to pass through cell membrane?

active transport


What is the movement of material through a membrane?

The movement of material through a membrane can occur via passive processes such as diffusion and osmosis, where substances move down their concentration gradient without requiring energy input. Active transport, on the other hand, involves the use of energy to move substances against their concentration gradient. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins to help transport specific molecules across the membrane.


When the cell itself plays an active role in the passing of molecules through its membrane?

active transport


Through what type of proteins does active transport occur?

Active transport occurs through carrier proteins that pump molecules against their concentration gradient using energy from ATP. These carrier proteins undergo conformational changes to transport molecules across the cell membrane.


Is plasmolysis an example of active transport?

Osmosis is the tendency of fluid to pass through a semi-permeable membrane until there is an equal concentration of fluid on each side of the membrane. The fluid in not transported, movement is self induced
