Diffusion and filtration are two examples of passive transport. Between cell membranes. There is no chemical energy required. Diffusion mores from an area of high concentration to a lower concentration, while filtration moves particles of a particular diameter through a membrane.

Osmosis is a spontaneous movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of solute concentration. Diffusion is a net movement of substance from a region of high concentration.
