Mama L [17]

Answer:

Transporte activo.

Explicación:

El transporte activo ocurre cuando una molécula se mueve de un área de menor concentración de sustancias a un área de mayor concentración. Los transportes activos utilizaron energía en forma de ATP para mover moléculas en contra del gradiente de concentración. Es lo opuesto al transporte pasivo en el que no se requiere energía para mover moléculas de una región a otra. La principal razón de que ocurra el transporte activo es que mueve moléculas en contra del flujo de difusión. En difusión, la molécula se mueve de un área de mayor concentración a un área de menor concentración.
