Question

Diffusion and osmosis are forms of passive transport. True False

Answer 1

Answer:

True. Diffusion and osmosis are forms of passive transport.

Explanation:

In diffusion, particles move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached.

In osmosis, a semipermeable membrane is present, so only the solvent molecules are free to move to equalize concentration.

Answer 2

Answer:

100% true

Explanation:

Simple diffusion and osmosis are both forms of passive transport and require none of the cell's ATP energy. Example of diffusion: Gas Exchange A biological example of diffusion is the gas exchange that occurs during respiration within the human body.
