Question

During cellular transport, which of the following forms of passive transport deals with transporting water through a membrane instead of the molecules themselves?

A. active transport

B. aquatic transport

C. hydrolysis

D. osmosis

Answer 1

D. osmosis

Step-by-step explanation:

Osmosis is the process of transporting water through a semipermeable membrane, in order to make the concentrations on either side equal.

Answer 2

Osmosis (Ans D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Passive transport is naturally occurring phenomenon of diffusion (movement) of molecular substances or ions cross the cell membrane without any input of cellular energy, it can easily pass through cell membranes.

Osmosis : In osmosis when a substances (solvent molecules) pass through semipermeable membrane into a solution in order to balance the concentration of another substance.
