<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A system of transport that helps in the movement of  one solute in a cell and the other out of the cell with a release of energy through ATP hydrolysis is an active transport. Active transport refers to the process that facilitates the molecules or ions to move across a cell membrane. This process requires enzymes and energy.

The movement of the ions or molecules inside a cell or out of the cell occurs across they cell membrane  from the lower concentration region to the higher concentration region is the active transport process. It is always related to the accumulation process of ions, amino acids glucose which are higher concentration molecules.
