Question

the passive transport of water is called
o a osmosis
b active transport
o c hypnosis
d diffusion
question 23 (1 point)
the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration is called
o a endocytosis
b osmosis
o c diffusion
d active transport

Explanation:

• Osmosis is the passive transport of water across a semi - permeable membrane.
• Active transport requires energy (usually ATP) to move substances against their concentration gradient.
• Hypnosis is a state of human consciousness, not related to molecular transport.
• Diffusion is the movement of molecules (other than water in the context of osmosis) from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
• Endocytosis is a form of active transport where a cell takes in substances by engulfing them.

Answer:

For the first question: A. osmosis
For the second question: C. diffusion
