May 16, 2020 · Active transport moves substances from a region of lower concentration to a higher concentration, i.e., against the concentration gradient. There is an energy requirement for this …

In cellular biology, active transport is the movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration—against the concentration gradient. …

Mar 19, 2022 · Active transport moves ions and molecule against the concentration gradient (from lower to higher concentration), while passive transport moves chemicals from higher to lower …

Aug 3, 2023 · Active transport is the energy-driven transportation of ions, small molecules, and solutes across the biological membrane against an electrochemical gradient (for ions) or concentration …

Aug 18, 2025 · Active transport is a fundamental process that allows cells to move substances across their membranes. This mechanism is essential for cell survival, enabling cells to maintain their …

Nov 13, 2025 · Active transport is a cellular mechanism that moves substances across the plasma membrane, maintaining a cell’s internal environment. Unlike passive movement, active transport is …

During active transport, substances move against the concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This process is “active” because it requires the use of …

Feb 2, 2023 · Active transport is an energy or ATP-dependent, cellular transport process that selectively moves substances from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration or ‘against the …

May 5, 2022 · Active transport is a type of cellular transport in which substances (e.g. ions, glucose, and amino acids) are transported across a biological membrane towards the region that already contains …

Active transport is a fundamental process that moves specific substances across the cell membrane. This movement is essential for cells to maintain their internal environment, acquire nutrients, and …
