Osmosis means the net movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a partially permeable membrane.
Osmosis is different to diffusion as osmosis is only about the movement of water molecules, while diffusion can be the movement of any dissolved substances. Including gas or liquid.
If a transport requires atp, a type of energy, its active transport. Only active transport requires extra energy.
Another example of active transport includes the absorption of nutrients in small intestine.

sodium, chloride, and potassium in cells and body fluids are examples of: question 54 options: phytates. electrolytes. condensat
Troyanec [42]

(b) electrolytes are what sodium, chloride, and potassium in cells and body fluids are examples of.

When dissolved in water or bodily fluids, a substance called an electrolyte separates into ions (particles having electrical charges). The ions sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, and phosphate are only a few examples.

The many electrolytes include sodium, calcium, potassium, chloride, phosphate, and magnesium. They come from the meals you consume and the liquids you drink.

Your body's electrolyte levels might get too high or too low. When your body's water balance changes, this may occur. The amount of water you consume and lose should be equal. If something throws off this equilibrium, you can be dehydrated or have too much water on your body (overhydration).

All movement are locomotion but not all locomotion are movement​
Vladimir [108]
Some may assume that movement and locomotion are the same, but these two words have certain differences. Movement is known to be the time when a living organism will move from one place to another. Locomotion means that the movement that the living organism did has made changes to the current position of the organism.
