**An active transport is the process by which a substance is transported or transferred from one area to another using a chemical energy in the course. **
As oppose to passive transport, active transportβs key to its description uses energy to be able to transfer the said substance. This is important in a lot of aspects such as providing the needed elements or compounds in cellular activity.
Active transport is the process of moving substances across a cell membrane from a lower concentration to a higher concentration, requiring energy, usually in the form of ATP. This process involves transport proteins that assist in moving the molecules against their concentration gradient. Key examples include the sodium-potassium pump and glucose uptake in intestinal cells.
