Active Transport : requires energy -- materials move across membrane from low to high concentration -- When a bolder is being pushed up a hill it requires energy from the object pushing it, thus it is active.

Passive Transport: does NOT require energy -- materials move across membrane from high to low concentration -- When a bolder rolls down a hill it doesnt require energy thus it is Passive.

What is the defference between active transpors and passive transport?

Active transport requires energy input to move molecules against their concentration gradient, while passive transport moves molecules along their concentration gradient without energy input. Active transport is typically carried out by transport proteins, such as pumps, while passive transport can occur through simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion.


What energy is required for passive transport?

By definition, passive transport on a cellular level requires no energy other than some sort of gradient, whether of the molecule in question, or another whose movement across the membrane can be linked to the one of interest.

What id the difference between active and passive transport?

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.
