Concentration gradient is made first.Solar energy is used.
Chemiosmosis
Yes. Positive ions (sodium) move across the membrane.
they create a flow of electrical currrent that can disturb the resting membrane potential.
active transport requires energy to move stuff and the energy is ATP
Energy from the electrons move down the chain is used to move H plus ions across the inner membrane. H plus ions move through channels of ATP synthase in the inner membrane.

Chemiosmosis
Facilitated diffusion uses proteins to move a molecule across the cell membrane without energy.
Yes. Positive ions (sodium) move across the membrane.
An example of passive transport would be the process of osmosis (water diffusing between a membrane-- from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration). It is known as passive transport because no energy is needed in order to move the water across the membrane. When no energy is needed to move the substance it is considered passive transport. On the other hand, when energy IS needed to transport molecules or substances across a membrane it is referred to as active transport. An example of this would be a calcium pump located in the lipid bilayer of a plasma membrane which can transport potassium (K+) ions across it. Energy is needed in order to move those potassium ions across the membrane, and therefore is referred to as active transport.
ATP-powered pumps are ATPase's that use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move ions or small molecules across a membrane against a chemical concentration gradient or electric potential. Channel proteins transports water or specific types of ions down their concentration or electric potential gradients. Transporters move a wide variety of ions and molecules across cell membranes.

active transport requires energy to move stuff and the energy is ATP
Active transport requires energy and proteins to move the materials across the cell membrane. This is in contrast to osmosis, which doesn't require energy to move the material.
