Source sentences:
text: Passive transport is the movement of substances across membranes in favor of their concentration gradient, rather, from a more concentrated region to a less concentrated region.
text: Active transport is the flow of substances from a lower concentration to a higher concentration gradient which uses energy in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) whereas Passive Transport in contrast, is the flow of substances from higher concentration to a lower concentration gradient without using energy and it continues until an equilibrium is reached.
text: Passive transport is the movement of substances across the membrane without any input of energy from the cell.
