All of the following statements are true regarding active transport except for one. Which statement does not apply to active tra
nsport? A. Move substances down a concentration gradient
B. Moves substances from a lower to a higher concentration gradient
C. Results in "hording" of substances
D. Requires hydrolysis of ATP
E. Requires integral membrane proteins
Active transport is the process of transport of substances in an energy dependent manner. The process of active transport requires energy to transport the substances against their concentration gradient. This means that active transport moves the substances from the region of their lower concentration to that of higher concentration.
