Is diffusion active transport?

No, it is passive transport because it does not require any of the cell's energy.


How are active transport and passive transport different from each other?

The most basic difference between active and passive transport is that active requires energy while passive does not. You would require active transport if the substance is going against the concentration of molecules inside and outside of the membrane or if the substance is particularly large. Passive is more for smaller molecules that go with the concentration of the molecules inside and outside of the membrane.
