Question
which type of transport requires energy input from the cell?
active transport
osmosis
facilitated diffusion
simple diffusion
Active transport moves substances against their concentration gradient, requiring energy (usually ATP) from the cell. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane, which is a passive process. Facilitated diffusion uses transport proteins to move substances down their concentration gradient without energy input. Simple diffusion is the movement of small, non - polar substances down their concentration gradient without energy.
