Question

Which are the true statements regarding Active transport?

• A. Energy dependent process.
• B. Occurs across the plasma membrane against the concentration gradient
• C. Faciliated transport is a type of Active transport.
• D. Diffusion is a type of Active transport.
• E. Osmosis is a type of Active transport.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

Faciliated transport is a type of Active transport.

Active transport occurs across the plasma membrane against the concentration gradient from their lower to higher concentration. It requires ATP. So it is an energy dependent process. Faciliated transport is a type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are types of Passive transport which don't require expenditure of energy ATP.
