Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane in the direction against their concentration gradient. It is usually associated with accumulating high concentrations of molecules.
Yes, any form of active transport uses energy.
It imparts and provides control of biochemical Functions.
Active transport is used when molecules are moved across a cell membrane against their concentration gradient, from a low to a high concentration.

ATP is often used as the source of energy during active transport.
Yes, any form of active transport uses energy.
Electrochemical gradient is used to move substances through a membrane in active transport.

Active transport allows plants to uptake essential nutrients from the soil against their concentration gradient, promoting growth. If active transport was operating all the time, it could result in a more efficient uptake of nutrients, leading to increased growth rates in plants. However, if active transport becomes excessive, it may lead to an imbalance in nutrient levels and potentially harm the plant's growth.
It imparts and provides control of biochemical Functions.
Active Transport is carried out in our body cells. Active Transport uses energy to transport materials.
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is used during active transport but not passive transport. Active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient, while passive transport relies on diffusion to move substances down their concentration gradient without the need for energy.
Active transport in plants occurs mainly in the root cells, where the uptake of essential nutrients from the soil takes place. This process requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, ensuring that plants can absorb the necessary nutrients for growth and development.
it is an ACTIVE transport.
