Solution

The correct option is B requires energy
Active transport is the movement of a substance from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. That is against a concentration gradient. This process requires the expenditure of energy from the breakdown of ATP and is therefore sensitive to factors affecting metabolism.
