A useful mnemonic device to remember osmosis, exocytosis, and active transport is "OEA" for "Osmosis, Exocytosis, Active transport." You can create a phrase like "Old Elephants Always" to help recall the order. Each term represents a different process of cell transport: osmosis for water movement, exocytosis for expelling materials from the cell, and active transport for moving substances against their concentration gradient.
