By which two properties active and facilitated transport differs in different transport processes?
MEDIUM

Assertion (A): The flow of solvent molecules from a pure solvent to the solution through semipermeable membrane is osmosis.

Reason (R): Pure solvent molecules flow out of the solution through semipermeable membrane if a pressure larger than the osmotic pressure is applied to the solution side.
