What is the process that requires cellular energy to move a substance against its concentration gradient?
Active transport uses energy to move substances against the concentration gradient.
Does osmosis work with or against the concentration gradient?
against the gradient
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called what?
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called active transport.
What does it mean when you are going with the concentration gradient?
Going with the concentration gradient is basically the process of diffusion. Molecules going from a low concentration to a high concentration would be going with the concentration gradient. Going against the concentration gradient would be the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
What proceeds against a concentration gradient?
Molecules can move against concentration gradient by a movement called active transport. Molecules move from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration by using chemical energy called ATP or an electrochemical gradient--either way, it uses cellular energy.
What is the process that requires cellular energy to move a substance against its concentration gradient?
Active transport uses energy to move substances against the concentration gradient.
Does active transport move with or against the gradient?
Against the gradient. It requires energy because it's going against the concentration of high to low.
Why active transport requires energy?
Active transportation is taken place against concentration gradient. So this requires energy .
Does osmosis work with or against the concentration gradient?
against the gradient
What is required when cells must move materials against a concentration gradient?
Active transport which requires ATP.
Active transport requires what?
Energy-requiring process by which substances move across the plasma membrane against a concentration gradient.
What is difference between active and passive?
Active transport requires an input of energy and can move substabces against their concentration gradient. Passive transport does not require added energy and can move substances only down their concentration gradient.
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called what?
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called active transport.

What is the transport of materials against a concentration gradient called?
The process of moving materials against a concentration gradient is called active transport. Active transport generally uses a protein pump to move molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration; in order to perform an active transport, the cell must use some of its energy to initiate the reaction.
When water moves through an area of higher concentration to lower concentration?
When a region of higher concentration to a region of Lower concentration against the gradient which requires Energy is called Active Transport
