The three methods of passive transport are simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. Simple diffusion involves the movement of molecules across a membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion uses carrier proteins to help larger or charged molecules move across the membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.

Active transport requires energy while passive transport does not.
Carrier proteins are sometimes used during passive transport.
Water can use both passive and active transport mechanisms. Passive transport involves movement of water molecules across a membrane without the need for energy, while active transport involves the use of energy to move water molecules against their concentration gradient.
Passive transport doesn't require energy and that helps the cell.

Carrier proteins can be involved in passive transport.
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
Active transport requires energy while passive transport does not.
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.
Active transport requires energy, passive transport does not.
