Which best describes the type of cellular transport that the student is investigating?

a)

The student is investigating the active transport of diffusion.

b)

The student is investigating the active transport of osmosis.

c)

The student is investigating the passive transport of diffusion.

d)

The student is investigating the passive transport of osmosis.
