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.
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.

Active transport requires energy, passive transport does not.
passive doesn't neeed energy but active transport does
The main difference is that active transport requires energy input from the cell to move molecules against their concentration gradient, while passive transport does not require energy and relies on the concentration gradient to move molecules across the cell membrane.
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.
One difference is energy consumption. Active transport requires the cell to expend energy, while passive transport does not. Active transport is movement from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and passive transport is movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane requiring energy to be expended by the cell. Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane requiring only random motion of molecules with no energy expanded by the cell. Active transport requires ATP to transport materials. Passive transport does not require ATP input to transport materials. Ex: diffusion
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.
Active transport is ATP dependent, whereas passive transport uses only the kinetic energy of the particles for movement across the plasma membrane- mastering A and P homework-
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
Active transport requires an input of energy and can move substabces against their concentration gradient. Passive transport does not require added energy and can move substances only down their concentration gradient.
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.
