What are active and passive transport in class11 biology as notes?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
In the active transport, the molecules are carried from the region of lower concentration gradient to the region of the lower concentration gradient. In this process, the molecules are the pump in the upward direction, and it is the unidirectional process, and therefore this process requires energy in the form of ATP also known as Adenosine triphosphate.
In the passive transport, the molecules are carried from the region of higher concentration gradient to the region of the lower concentration gradient. Here the molecules move bidirectionally and in the downward direction and so does not requires energy, due to the lack of resistance. The main purpose of the passive transport is to maintain the equilibrium in the concentration. Passive transport is classified into four categories like osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and filtration.
