The movement of materials across the cell membrane without using cellular energy is called passive transport. The movement of materials against a concentration difference is known as active transport. Active transport requires energy.
Absolutely, in order for passive transport to occur, the concentration on one side of the membrane must be larger than the concentration on the other side of the membrane. The molecules move from higher to lower concentration.
concentration gradient.
It's called passive transport for a cell's membrane. (I checked with my science teacher)
it moves materials from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentrationit moves materials of high concentration to areas of low concentration
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

Absolutely, in order for passive transport to occur, the concentration on one side of the membrane must be larger than the concentration on the other side of the membrane. The molecules move from higher to lower concentration.
Passive transport is where materials are transported across a membrane without the use of stored energy. Active transport is where materials are transported across a membrane using ATP, or another source of stored cellular energy. Diffusion is where solutes flow across a membrane in response to a concentration gradient, and requires no energy input to occur. Therefore, diffusion is a form of passive transport.

Passive Transport
PASSIVE TRANSPORT: when there is a transport of solutes from there higher concentration to their lower concentration across the semipermeable membrane as plasma membrane without any utilization of energy is called passive transport. ACTIVE TRANSPORT: When there is a net flow of solutes from there low concentration to their high concentrain of flow against the concentration gradiant with the utilization of energy is called active transport. e.g. Na+- K+ exchange pump.
