These are three different ways that cells have to get things in and out of the cell. Passive transport is movement without the use of energy, active transport requires energy.
Active transport requires energy since the molecules are going toward a region that has a higher concentration of that molecule. The cell is 'stuffing' more into itself.
Endocytosis means to 'take into the cell'. Usually this a larger molecule and cell must wrap part of itself around the molecule and then can bring it inside. This is a type of phagocytosis (cell eating).
This requires energy as well.
