The Sodium-Potassium Pump. The process of moving sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrance is an active transport process involving the hydrolysis of ATP to provide the necessary energy. ... It accomplishes the transport of three Na+ to the outside of the cell and the transport of two K+ ions to the inside
might help u!!!

Answer:
Active and passive in movements across the cell surface of axon. The movements are responsible for the generation of negative potential inside the axon. This is called resting potential. Active transport takes place through the sodium-potassium pump. Ion channels(proteins) allow the passive movement of ions down their electrochemical gradients.
Hope it helps... :)
