"Active" in this context means that energy is required. A substance will flow in a certain direction, through diffusion, without having to provide additional energy. To force the substance in the opposite direction would require energy; the cell has to be "active" to achieve this, and this requires energy.
Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane against their concentration gradient, requiring energy. A permeable membrane allows certain substances to pass through, while blocking others. Active transport can help move specific molecules across a permeable membrane to maintain cellular functions.
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.
Passive and active transport. Passive transport doesn't require the cell's energy, while active transport does.
Two processes that transport materials through a semi-permeable membrane are passive diffusion, which involves the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, and facilitated diffusion, which involves the transport of molecules across the membrane with the help of specific carrier proteins.
Active Transport requires first of all Energy which is obtained from respiration and secondly a selectively permeable membrane through which movement of materials can take place.

The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is responsible for regulating the movement of water and substances through processes like active transport and passive transport. It acts as a selectively permeable barrier, allowing certain molecules to pass through while blocking others.

Selectively permeable describes a cell membrane that allows certain ions or molecules to pass through it by means of passive or active transport.
Yes. The cell membrane allows some materials to be let in, while keeping others out. This is done by passive or active transport.
passive or active transport. Passive transport does not require energy input and includes processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Active transport requires energy input and includes processes like primary active transport and secondary active transport.

Sugar transport can occur through both passive transport, such as facilitated diffusion or simple diffusion, and active transport, such as primary or secondary active transport processes. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane, so sugar transport itself is not osmosis.
Active Transport requires first of all Energy which is obtained from respiration and secondly a selectively permeable membrane through which movement of materials can take place.
Active transport
No, osmosis does not involve transport proteins. Osmosis is the passive movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane in response to a concentration gradient. Transport proteins are involved in facilitated diffusion and active transport processes.
Semi-permeable. Permeable means things can pass through, so semi-permeable means only some things can pass through.
