Answer: ATP and transport proteins .

Explanation:

Active transport is characterized by the movement of substances and ions against the concentration gradient, that is, it always occurs from places where they are less concentrated to places where they are more concentrated. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of active transport. Sodium concentration is higher in the extracellular environment while potassium is higher in the intracellular environment. Importantly, the energy required for this change comes from the breakdown of the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecule into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and phosphate. That is, energy is derived from the degradation of ATP or another high energy phosphate compound, depending on transport proteins.

How can one species eventually change into something completely different over the course of millions of years?
MrRissso [65]

One species eventually changes into something completely different over the course of millions of years. This can be described using the evolution theory. The evolutionary process of species shows how one population of a species changes over time to the point where that population is distinct and can no longer interbreed with the parent population. Hence one species is changed into another over o period of time. Speciation is an evolutionary process by which a new species comes into being.

This theory of evolution was proposed by Charles Darwin.
