Differentiate between:
Active absorption through osmotic mechanism and Active absorption through non-osmotic mechanism.

Explanation

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Definition of Active Absorption**:
- Active absorption in plants refers to the process by which roots take up water and minerals from the soil against a concentration gradient, requiring energy input.

2. **Active Absorption through Osmotic Mechanism**:
- This type of active absorption occurs when water is absorbed by root hairs due to osmotic forces.
- Water moves from a hypotonic solution (where there is a lower concentration of solutes) in the soil to a hypertonic solution (where there is a higher concentration of solutes) inside the root cells.
