Which process requires cellular energy to move molecules across the cellular membrane from a region of low concentration to a region of higher concentration?
|
active transport
|
|
diffusion
|
|
osmosis
|
|
hydrolysis
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This is the biological process in which molecules move against the concentration gradient and require chemical energy to move biochemical compounds from a lower region to the high region. Therefore, this process uses ATP – Adenosine triphosphate to pump molecules through a concentration gradient.
Detailed explanation-2: -Active transport is the energy-requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes against a concentration gradient.
