Water can use both passive and active transport mechanisms. Passive transport involves movement of water molecules across a membrane without the need for energy, while active transport involves the use of energy to move water molecules against their concentration gradient.

active
The only different between passive and active transport is the use of energy. In passive transport, molecules can either diffuse across the membrane, go through an aquaporin or use a passive transporter. In active transport, energy needs to be released, and it is usually because you are trying to transport a molecule or ion up its concentration gradient.
Active transport requires energy while passive transport does not.
Passive transport refers to the movement of molecules across a cell membrane. An example of a sentence would be: "Passive transport does not require energy to work".
Water diffusing from a high to low area (osmosis) is called passive transport.
Water can use both passive and active transport mechanisms. Passive transport involves movement of water molecules across a membrane without the need for energy, while active transport involves the use of energy to move water molecules against their concentration gradient.

passive transport
Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.
Carrier proteins can be involved in passive transport.
