Give two examples of substances that might be moved by active transport?
Active transport is usually associated with accumulating high concentrations of molecules that the cell needs, such as ions, glucose and amino acids. ...
Differentiate clearly between primary and secondary active transport processes?
The main difference between primary and secondary active transport is that molecules are transported by the breakdown of ATP in primary active transpo...

What are the active transport processes?
Active transport is the energy-requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes "uphill" - against a concentration gradient. ... Large...
