Active transport Which one of the following is true regarding active transport? A) It is a passive process B) It moves molecules along their concentration gradient C) It requires energy D) It does not utilize ATP
C) It requires energy Which type of cellular transport requires a cell to use energy?
Active transport What is active transport and why does it require energy?
Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane against their concentration gradient, from low to high concentration, and it requires energy because this process is not energetically favorable. Describe the function of the sodium-potassium pump in primary active transport.
The sodium-potassium pump moves 3 sodium ions out of the cell and 2 potassium ions into the cell, both against their concentration gradients, using energy directly from ATP hydrolysis. Explain how secondary active transport uses the sodium gradient to transport glucose.
Secondary active transport uses the energy from sodium ions moving down their concentration gradient (created by primary active transport) to drive the transport of glucose against its concentration gradient into the cell. What is the main difference in the energy source between primary and secondary active transport?
Primary active transport uses ATP directly as its energy source, while secondary active transport uses the energy stored in the concentration gradient of another molecule.
