No, active transport requires an input of energy, usually in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to move substances against their concentration gradient. Passive transport, on the other hand, does not require energy and relies on the natural movement of substances down their concentration gradient.
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
Passive transport is a form of transport that does not require an input of energy. Examples include diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion. On the other hand, active transport is a form of transport that requires an input of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This energy is required for processes such as moving molecules against the concentration gradient.
Passive transport never requires energy - hence the name passive. Active transport requires the input of energy. Two types of active transport are; primary (using pumps) and secondary (using anti or symports).
Passive processes do not require energy input and occur spontaneously, such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion. Active processes require energy input to proceed, such as active transport, endocytosis, and exocytosis to move substances against their concentration gradient.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane, and does not require the input of energy. Active transport requires energy input.
Osmosis is an example of movement of particles from an area without the need of additional energy. If a state is not in equilibrium particles can move from one area to another without additional energy.
No, active transport requires an input of energy, usually in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to move substances against their concentration gradient. Passive transport, on the other hand, does not require energy and relies on the natural movement of substances down their concentration gradient.
The statement that osmosis requires energy input from the cell is not correct. Osmosis is a passive process that does not require energy input from the cell, while active transport does require energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
passive or active transport. Passive transport does not require energy input and includes processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Active transport requires energy input and includes processes like primary active transport and secondary active transport.

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.

No it does not..........simple diffusion is nauture
Osmosis and diffusion are considered passive transport because they do not require energy input from the cell. Molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration in a random process, which does not require the cell to expend energy.
Passive processes do not require energy input and occur spontaneously, such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion. Active processes require energy input to proceed, such as active transport, endocytosis, and exocytosis to move substances against their concentration gradient.
