They are opposites of each other.
Explanation:
Passive transport is like diffusion, it is the movement of particles down a concentration gradient. A common example of this would be water, which moves into plants by osmosis.
Active transport is the net movement of particles up a concentration gradient. This requires energy from the organisms, such as a plant, and it will use
