Naturally, molecules move from an area of high concentration to low concentration without the need of energy. This type of movement is passive transport. Molecules with strong electrical charges such as ions cannot simply diffuse across the cell membrane. Irrespective of their size, their charge prevents them from moving freely across the cell membrane.
Passive transport is the movement of molecules down a concentration gradient (from high to low concentration). Molecules move by random thermal movements. The three different types are simple diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion. This process does not require energy and the molecule that are transported are moving towards equilibrium.
