Active transport is the process of molecules being moved across a membrane using energy. Passive transport moves the molecules without using energy.
No, diffusion is not a form of active transport. Diffusion is a passive process where molecules or ions move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, driven by the concentration gradient. Active transport, on the other hand, requires energy expenditure to move molecules or ions against their concentration gradient.
The energy needed for active transport is usually supplied by ATP, adenosine triphosphate. ATP provides the necessary energy for transporting molecules across a cell membrane against their concentration gradient. This process is essential for maintaining cell homeostasis and various cellular processes.
Facilitated diffusion, or diffusion through ion channels, is not a form of active transport. It is a spontaneous passive transport.
Passive transport does not require energy input and relies on the concentration gradient to move molecules across the cell membrane. Active transport requires energy (usually in the form of ATP) to move molecules against the concentration gradient.
The energy used in active transport is derived from ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is produced through cellular respiration in the mitochondria of cells. ATP provides the necessary energy for the transport proteins to move molecules against their concentration gradient across the cell membrane.
It has is in the name. Active Transport
it is an active transport process
Exocytosis is an active process in cellular transport.
Active Transport is carried out in our body cells. Active Transport uses energy to transport materials.
Active transport is the process that requires the use of energy to move materials across a membrane. This process involves the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient, requiring energy input from the cell.
Active Transport..........
a houseplant in dry soil is this process diffusion,osmosis,or active transport
Yes, the process of transport, whether passive or active, requires energy.
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
Active transport
active transport is an energy reqiuring process in which transport proteins bind with particles and move them through a cell membrane
Passive transport... the opposite of active transport.
