Explanation:
Active transport is when molecules move across a cell membrane from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. This takes energy, often from adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Active transport is done so cells get what they need, such as ions, glucose and amino acids

Answer:
Active transport is a very important process enabling cells to accumulate molecules or ions from the environment against the concentration gradient. Conversely, contents of cells heavily loaded with electrolytes or metabolic products can be excreted against the concentration gradient.
