Question

which of the following statements about osmosis are correct? select all correct options. osmosis is a type of passive transport. osmosis requires energy from atp. water can move through aquaporins during osmosis. water can move through the plasma membrane by simple diffusion.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a type of passive transport where water moves across a semi - permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. It does not require energy in the form of ATP. Water can move through the plasma membrane by simple diffusion or through aquaporins during osmosis.

Answer:

1. Osmosis is a type of passive transport.
2. Water can move through aquaporins during osmosis.
3. Water can move through the plasma membrane by simple diffusion.
