Heya...❤️❤️❤️

here is ur answer..

Active transport is important because it allows the cell to move substances against the concentration gradient. ... Active transport allows the cell to maintain the appropriate balance of substances regardless of the concentration of that substance outside the cell.

hope it helps...

hey mate!

here is your answer..

Plants require mineral salts such as nitrates for growth. The concentration of nitrates is higher on plant root cell than it is in the soil solution surrounding it. The plant cannot rely on diffusion as the nitrates would diffuse out of root cell into the soil. Hence the cells utilise energy to actively transport nitrates across the cell membrane into the root cell, against the concentration gradient.

In active transport particles move against a concentration gradient and therefore require energy which must be supplied by the cell. Carrier proteins that are found in the cell membrane of cells use energy to transport molecules or ions across the membrane, against the concentration gradient.
