How is active transportation different from passive transportation?

Answer:
Active transport requires the input of chemical energy to transport substances through membrane proteins whereas passive transport does not need chemical energy to occur. Diffusion and osmosis occur naturally due to the concentration gradient which exists between two liquids and are a form of passive transport.
