Water is never moved via direct active transport in living systems. Rather, salts are actively transported and water follows via osmosis. True False

Solution

The answer is True.. The water is transported by a process called osmosis and diffusion. Osmosis in which the water is transported from a region of higher water concentration to a lower through a semi-permeable Membrane. In this case there are water channels called aquaporins which helps in the water transport inside and outside the cell.

Salts are transported by active transport ie from the region of smaller concentration to higher using the energy of cel
