Diffusion is an example of passive transport because an organism need not expend energy to accomplish diffusion. In diffusion, molecules simply cross a membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

What does active transport look like?

The only different between passive and active transport is the use of energy. In passive transport, molecules can either diffuse across the membrane, go through an aquaporin or use a passive transporter. In active transport, energy needs to be released, and it is usually because you are trying to transport a molecule or ion up its concentration gradient.
