ATP consumption is an active process. It provides the energy required for various cellular functions, such as muscle contraction, active transport of molecules across membranes, and biochemical reactions. These processes require energy input, making them active rather than passive, which would not involve energy expenditure.

Is ATP an active or passive molecule in cellular processes?

ATP is an active molecule in cellular processes.


What is difference between active transport and passive transport?

One difference is energy consumption. Active transport requires the cell to expend energy, while passive transport does not. Active transport is movement from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and passive transport is movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane requiring energy to be expended by the cell. Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane requiring only random motion of molecules with no energy expanded by the cell. Active transport requires ATP to transport materials. Passive transport does not require ATP input to transport materials. Ex: diffusion


Does passive transport requires the use of ATP?

Active transport requires ATP and a transport channel. The channel is made of proteins.


Which membrane activities require ATP?

Active transport... Not anything passive though.


What types of transport require ATP?

The two types of cell trnsport it Passive Transport and Active Transport. Active Transport does require energy to move into and out of the cell. Passive Transport doesn't require energy to move into and out of the cell. Hope I helped!


Is ATP needed for osmosis?

No, ATP is not needed for osmosis. Osmosis is a passive process that occurs due to the concentration gradient of solutes across a semi-permeable membrane. ATP is required for active transport processes, not osmosis.


Passive and active transport?

Active Transpot. -Pumps -Endocytosis -Exocytosis Passive Transport - Diffusion -osmosis -Facilitated Diffusion active requires energy passive doesnt. active against concentration gradient, passive along concentration gradient.


What perform active transport cells use?

Energy, versus passive in which energy is not used.


Does Passive transport uses ATP to move molecules against their concentration gradient?

No, passive transport does not require ATP because it moves molecules along their concentration gradient, from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. ATP is only required for active transport, which moves molecules against their concentration gradient.


When are active and passive transport and their types used?

Active transport uses energy in the form of ATP. Active can force electrons against the electron gradient as in the electron transport chain. Passive transport does not use energy and an example of passive transpost is osmosis.


Is osmosis an active transport?

It is a type of passive diffusion, as the water travels along a concentration gradiant. As opposed to active transport, where the substances can pass against a concentration gradiant.


Are symporters active or passive in their transport mechanism?

Symporters are active transport mechanisms that move molecules across a cell membrane using energy from ATP or an electrochemical gradient.
