Vesicular active transport
Active Transport
Active transport simply means the transport of substances against the concentration gradient.In this transport,ATP is utilised.

Transport proteins
Carrier proteins of the cell membrane transport substances down their concentration gradient out of or into the cell by facilitated diffusion and active transport.
Active transport is when a cell needs to use energy in or to let substances pass in through or out or its cell membrane or cell wall. Passive transport requires to energy at all making substances like water easy to let pass through.
Do you mean how do substances move through a cell membrane if they are too big to transport by passive transport?If so, a cell uses active transport to move large particles in and out of a cell. Active transport includes endocytosis, pinocytosis, and phagocytosis.
It's called active transport. When talking about the cell, it is usually bigger substances that use passages in the cell membrane to access the inner part of the cell, and they need energy to get there. The opposite; passive transport or diffusion, is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without the use of cellular energy. THis happens with smaller substances.
Substances can move in and out of a cell in several ways. Diffusion is when a substance will distribute itself in or out of a cell until the distribution on both sides of the cell is balanced. Active transport is when a cell transports a substance across the cell membrane that would not normally be able to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water from areas with few dissolved dissolved substances to areas with high dissolved substances.
