Active transport processes

require the cell to expend energy
to move the materials, while
passive transport can be done
without using cellular energy.

Active transport requires energy

for the movement of molecules
whereas passive transport does
not require energy for the
movement of molecules.

a process by which molecules pass through a membrane

from a less concentrated solution into a more
concentrated one

phagocytosis involves the

ingestion of solid material,
pinocytosis is the ingestion of
