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.

Proceeds Against a concentration Gradient requires a carrier?
Solute pump
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 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.

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.
What is the difference in the concentration of a substance across a space is called concentration?
Concentration Gradient
What moves solutes against concentration gradient?
The processes that can move a solute against its concentration gradient are active transport. All cells are enclosed by a plasma membrane that is similar in structure and function.
How is the concentration gradient of a substance important to diffusion?
In diffusion, substances flow with a concentration gradient, meaning that they flow from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration. Flowing against a concentration gradient would be going from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration, but this only occurs in active transport.
How does difference in concentration relate to movement of substances across the membrane?
the concentration gradient will help to bring stuff into the cell and to move stuff out. Osmosis likes to move with the concentration gradient. Moving with a concentration gradient is passive transport and moving against it is active transport
What process is used to go against the concentration gradient?
active transport
Does simple diffusion work with or against the concentration gradient?
I think that it is something
