Passive transport requires no energy from the cell. Examples include the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide, osmosis of water, and facilitated diffusion. Ac?ve transport requires the cell to spend energy, usually in the form of ATP. Examples include transport of large molecules (non-­‐lipid soluble) and the sodium-­‐potassium pump.
