active transports
active transport requires input of energy as it takes place aginst a gradient.
Passive transport mechanisms, such as diffusion and facilitated diffusion, do not require the cell to expend energy. These processes rely on the natural movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
active transportactive transportExocytosis & endocytosis are types of active transport, because they expend energy in order to transfer things into and out of a cell.
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.
Yes, active transport requires energy because it moves molecules or ions against their concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This process requires the cell to expend energy in the form of ATP to drive the transport proteins involved in active transport.

Facilitated diffusion.
It doesn't require the cell to expend energy.

No. Endocytosis requires the cell to expend energy, therefore it is a form of active transport.
Yes, active transport requires the cell to expend energy in the form of ATP in order to move molecules against their concentration gradient. This process allows the cell to maintain proper concentrations of molecules inside and outside the cell.
Generally, cells derive their energy from ATP (in their phosphate bond).
A cell must expend energy to transport substances across its membrane against their concentration gradient, a process known as active transport. This energy is usually provided by ATP, the cell's main energy currency.
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.
Yes, facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport. The cell does not expend any energy; integral proteins in the cell's surface membrane act as carriers.
