What are the different types of transport mechanisms in cells including osmosis and active transport?
Understand the Problem
The question appears to inquire about various biological processes like osmosis and active transport as noted in the notebook, which likely pertains to cell biology.
Answer
Simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, primary active transport, secondary active transport.
The different types of transport mechanisms in cells include simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis (passive transport), and primary and secondary active transport.
Answer for screen readers
The different types of transport mechanisms in cells include simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis (passive transport), and primary and secondary active transport.
More Information
Transport in cells can be passive, like diffusion which doesn't require energy, or active, which requires energy to move substances against their gradient.
Tips
A common mistake is thinking all transport requires energy; only active transport does.
