Question

similarities between osmosis and active transport

Answer 1

Answer:

Osmosis is a type of passive transport, unlike active transport. Active transport utilizes the use of protein pumps such as sodium-potassium pumps, while osmosis does not. Another difference is how osmosis does not require any energy to move the molecules while active transport does. Osmosis also doesn't particularly happen between cell membranes or relies on transport proteins like active transport. Osmosis also only happens to water molecules, but active transport happens to every type of molecules and ions.

So 5 differences:

1)Passive and active transport

2)Protein Pumps

3)Energy required

4)Membrane used

5)Type of particles

Explanation:

Answer 2

Osmosis takes place through a semipermeable membrane and viceversa.
