Active transport depends on ATP.
Passive transport does not depend on energy.
Exocytosis=) need more? i'll be glad to help! just add Dylan Wilkerson on facebook!=)
passive transport
No, diffusion is passive transport.Active transport would be when there are actual proteins and structures involved in the transportation of molecules/chemicals/etc..A sure sign is that all of these (that I know of) require ATP.An example would be the Sodium-Potassium Pump located along one's neurons which actively pumps (aka. transports) sodium and potassium back and forth across the membrane to build up potential charge. This is how "signals" are sent down neurons and around the body.
The processes that can move a solute against its concentration gradient are active transport. All cells are enclosed by a plasma membrane that is similar in structure and function.

passive transport
Passive transport is useful to all cells because it does not require the use of a cell's energy; this is of much benefit to the cell and organism.
No, actually diffusion is a kind of passive transport, and osmosis is a kind of diffusion. Any passive transport can happen without energy (contrary to active transport). Since, all the things you listed were passive transport, they happen down the concentration gradient and need no ATP.
Via endocytosis, active transport and facilitated passive transport and diffusion.
Passive transport is the cellular transport mechanism. This all depends on the blood pressure.

Active transport is when a cell needs to use energy in or to let substances pass in through or out or its cell membrane or cell wall. Passive transport requires to energy at all making substances like water easy to let pass through.

Active transport.
1. Not all verbs can be used in a passive form. 2. Passive is usually used without the 'actor' of the sentence and this is not always suitable. Passive doesn't have to be avoided you just need to use passive forms at the right time.
