Passive transport requires no energy so moves with the gradient, not against it (active transport) so it is true

This statement is true. Only active transport can move molecules up a concentration gradient using energy. Passive transport on the other hand, uses no energy and occurs naturally. Therefore molecules can only move a concentration gradient.
