Active transport is the term used to define the means of particle transport that requires input of energy from the cell. The opposite of this would be passive transport.
The statement that osmosis requires energy input from the cell is not correct. Osmosis is a passive process that does not require energy input from the cell, while active transport does require energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
passive or active transport. Passive transport does not require energy input and includes processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Active transport requires energy input and includes processes like primary active transport and secondary active transport.
Active transport requires energy (ATP, GTP, etc) to work against the electrochemical gradient. Passive transport works with the electrochemical gradient and does not require energy. (Think diffusion)
Active transport is an endergonic process, meaning it requires energy input to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Active transport requires assistance from membrane proteins. These proteins, such as ion pumps and carrier proteins, help move molecules against their concentration gradient, requiring energy input to drive the process.
Active biological Transport.
ATP
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane, and does not require the input of energy. Active transport requires energy input.
active transport requires input of energy as it takes place aginst a gradient.
Active transport requires some form of energy input, usually ATP
Active transport requires energy input to move molecules against their concentration gradient, while passive transport moves molecules along their concentration gradient without energy input. Active transport is typically carried out by transport proteins, such as pumps, while passive transport can occur through simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion.
No, active transport requires an input of energy, usually in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to move substances against their concentration gradient. Passive transport, on the other hand, does not require energy and relies on the natural movement of substances down their concentration gradient.
The statement that osmosis requires energy input from the cell is not correct. Osmosis is a passive process that does not require energy input from the cell, while active transport does require energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Passive transport never requires energy - hence the name passive. Active transport requires the input of energy. Two types of active transport are; primary (using pumps) and secondary (using anti or symports).
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
Any form of active transport, which can be defined as any movement of molecules against or independent of a concentration gradient. Examples include pumps and endocytosis
