Active absorption of water occurs in root cells which utilizes the metabolic energy released through respiration. It is of two types. Osmotic absorption is when water is absorbed from the soil into the xylem of the roots according to the osmotic gradient. And Non-osmotic absorption is when water is absorbed against the osmotic gradient. Usually, transpiration is passive absorption but when it is low active absorption occurs.
It takes place in living cells.
The force for passive absorption develops in shoot not of active absorption.
