By definition, passive transport on a cellular level requires no energy other than some sort of gradient, whether of the molecule in question, or another whose movement across the membrane can be linked to the one of interest.

If the substance entering the cell was in higher concentration inside the cell then outside the cell what type of transport would be required?
It would be active transport, a process which requires a cell to use its own energy (unlike passive transport).
Distinguish between active and passive transport?
Active Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane through the expenditure of energy. Passive Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane without the expenditure of energy. Bulk Transport is the type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are type of passive transport.
What is a real life example of passive transport?
from high to law and no energy require.
What energy is used in passive transport?
ATP is what is normally used for energy in cells.
Is osmosis active or a passive transport?
Passive.
Why is energy required in passive transport to occur?
Energy is not required for passive transport.
Energy is blank from the cell for passive transport?
Energy is not required for passive transport.
Is passive transport a non energy requiring process?
Yes; the definition of passive is no energy required
How did active transport get its name?
its name is due to the fact that active transport requires energy as opposed to passive transport when no energy is required.
Transport that does not use energy?
passive transport
What produces energy from the passive transport?
nothing, passive transport doesn't require energy
What type of transport does not require energy?
passive transport does not need energy. And two types of passive tansport are osmosis and diffusion
Is kenetic energy used in passive transport?
yes, kinetic energy is used in passive transport
Is it true that active transport differs from passive transport in that it does not require an input of energy?
Yes. Active transport requires energy but passive transport does not.
What is differs between active transport and passive transport?
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
The difference between active transport and passive transport is?
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
How does active transport differ from passive transport-?
Active transport requires energy while passive transport does not.
