Do bacteria have mouths?
Some bacteria create enzymes which travel through the cell wall and digest the food. Then the digested food gets absorbed back through the skin of the cell. This method is called passive transport. In active transport, however, the food is drawn into the cell and it is digested inside the cell. Active transport can require only a single molecule of liquid, whereas passive requires a great deal more.
Where does a cell get the energy to achieve active transport?
Cells get energy from the food you eat. In particular, cells get energy from ATP which is product of cellular respiration in many organisms and photosynthesis in plants. When ATP is cleaved and leaves a phosphate (Pi) and ADP this reaction releases a great amount of energy, which can then be used by the cell.
