This paper summarizes the differences in the properties of active chromospheres compared with quiet chromospheres by comparing active and quiet regions on the Sun, active and quiet chromosphere stars, and the very active chromospheres seen in close binary systems with chromospheres of single stars. In particular, the chromospheres of the RS CVn-type binary systems UX Arietis and HR 1099 and the chromosphere of UX Arietis during a flare are modeled.
