How do the particles move in active transport?

Biology

ella [17]3 years ago
5 0

In active transport particles move by making use of energy in the form of ATP.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Unlike in passive transport particles have to move against the concentration gradient in active transport. Thus particles require energy to do so and this energy is in the form of ATP. Osmosis and simple diffusion are examples of passive transport where substances move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

This movement is down the concentration gradient. In active transport particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration which is against the concentration gradient. Active transport is of two types.

In the first type called primary active transport energy is directly used in the form of ATP. In the second type called secondary active transport an electrochemical gradient created by ATP is used to facilitate the transport.

How do cohesion and adhesion help water move up a plant
Ganezh [65]

Cohesion: When water molecules stick to one another through cohesion, they fill the column in the xylem and act as a huge single molecule of water (like water in a straw). Capillary action: Capillary action is the movement of a liquid across the surface of a solid caused by adhesion between the two.
