5 The main difference between passive and active transport i

5. The main difference between passive and active transport is a. the specificity of the target molecule involved. b. the requirement for ATP. c. various gradient and osmotic pressures within the cell. d the ability to maintain voltage across the membrane. e diffusion versus membrane protein mediated transport.

Solution

5. The answer is: Requirement of ATP.

Active transport requires ATP whereas passive transport does not require ATP.
