Solution
The passive transport methods from your list are:
- Simple diffusion
- Facilitated diffusion via a channel protein
- Facilitated diffusion via a carrier protein
Passive transport is a type of cellular transport where substances move along their concentration gradient, meaning they move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. This process does not require energy.
On the other hand, active transport methods like phagocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis, endocytosis, active transport, exocytosis, pinocytosis, cotransport, and autophagy require energy as they move substances against their concentration gradient (from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration).
