Selenium is mainly absorbed in the small intestine, specifically in the jejunum and ileum. It is absorbed through the process of passive diffusion and is then transported to the liver for distribution throughout the body.
Fats are absorbed mainly by passive transport in the small intestine. This process involves the diffusion of fatty acids and monoglycerides across the intestinal epithelium and into the bloodstream without the need for energy input.
Passive transport includes diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
Diffusion
Diffusion is a type of passive transport where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the use of energy.

Ethanol is primarily absorbed in the small intestine, but it can also be absorbed in the stomach. Absorption occurs through passive diffusion directly into the bloodstream, leading to its distribution throughout the body.
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.

Passive.
Yes, osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport.
Passive transport includes diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
Diffusion is a form of passive transport, where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the need for energy input.
Drugs are most often absorbed in the gastrointestinal system through a process called passive diffusion. Passive diffusion works because particles in a solution tend to even out. A high concentration of particulate seeps into low areas of concentration until a balance is achieved.
