Passive transport is called passive because it doesn't require chemical energy intervention to occur. The four main types of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, and filtration.
Active transport and passive transport are two methods by which substances move across cell membranes. Active transport requires energy input from the cell, usually in the form of ATP, to move molecules against their concentration gradient. In contrast, passive transport does not require energy and relies on the natural movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration. One way in which active and passive transport contrast in terms of their mechanisms is that active transport uses specific carrier proteins to transport molecules, while passive transport can occur through simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion. Another difference is that active transport can move molecules in both directions across the membrane, while passive transport typically only moves molecules in one direction.
Passive transport moves with the concentration gradient.
Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient while passive transport does not require energy and moves molecules from high to low concentration. Active transport is selective and can transport specific molecules, while passive transport is nonselective and moves molecules based on their concentration gradient.
Passive transport does not require energy, as it involves the movement of molecules across a cell membrane without the input of energy. This includes processes such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.
Diffusion is a type of passive transport where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the use of energy.
