Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. I'm assuming you mean active transport of plasma into a red blood cell.

Is plasmolysis an example of active transport?
Osmosis is the tendency of fluid to pass through a semi-permeable membrane until there is an equal concentration of fluid on each side of the membrane. The fluid in not transported, movement is self induced
What transport may need to use energy to pass through cell membrane?
active transport
When the cell itself plays an active role in the passing of molecules through its membrane?
active transport
Describe a form of active transport similar to the work of carrier proteins?
Molecules are moved through the cell membrane by active transport.
Through what type of proteins does active transport occur?
A carrier protein (as opposed to a channel protein). An example of a carrier protein is the Na+/K+ pump.
What is the movement of material through a membrane?
This movement occurs through several mechanisms.
Is diffusion an example of active transport or passive transport?
Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
What is used to move a substance through a membrane in active transport?
Electrochemical gradient is used to move substances through a membrane in active transport.
Is plasmolysis an example of active transport?
Osmosis is the tendency of fluid to pass through a semi-permeable membrane until there is an equal concentration of fluid on each side of the membrane. The fluid in not transported, movement is self induced
What is the movement of material through a cell membrane that requires energy?
Active transport. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of this.
What is the name of the membrane that allows the movement of water and substances to move through the process of active transport and passive transport?
The name of the membrane that allows movement of water and substances through the process of active and passive transport is semipermeable membrane.
