No. (Active xport would be in the opposite direction.)
exocytosis which is when cells absorb materials from outside the cell by engulfing it with their cell membrane
Active transport uses energy while diffusion does not
Facilitated diffusion, or diffusion through ion channels, is not a form of active transport. It is a spontaneous passive transport.
simple diffusion.
The main difference is that diffusion does not require energy and active transport does require energy. Just for the record diffusion has a concentration that moves from high to low, and active transport has a concentration that moves from low to high. (Hope this helps to answer your question!)
Yes, active transport is a process in which cells use energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, whereas diffusion is a passive process where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Active transport allows cells to transport molecules against their concentration gradient, which is opposite to the direction of diffusion.
facilitated diffusion, secondary active transport and active transport
Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
ATP is required for active transport.
no they are passive transport
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
