Active transport: The movement of particles against the concentration gradient into or out of a cell. Bulk transport:The movement of large molecules into or out of the cell. Both of these require energy
Active Transport.
If the diffusion is moving particles from higher to lower concentration, it uses no energy from the cell; this is passive diffusion. However, if it is active diffusion, the cell is pumping out specific molecules into a higher concentration, therefore using energy.
Diffusion and Osmosis
It is called passive diffusion.

Mitochondria convert fuel particles, such as glucose and fatty acids, into useable energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a process called cellular respiration. This process involves multiple steps, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation, which ultimately produce ATP as the cell's main source of energy.

Passive transport that moves particles away from areas is called facilitated diffusion. This process uses transport proteins to help molecules or ions pass through the cell membrane, moving from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration without using energy.
Paramecium retrieve energy by consuming food particles and other organic matter through a process called phagocytosis. They engulf these particles into their cell body, where they are broken down and the energy is released and used by the organism for various activities.
Amoebas obtain energy by engulfing food particles through a process called phagocytosis. Once the food particles are ingested, they are broken down and nutrients are absorbed into the cell to be used for energy production through cellular respiration.
