Active transport. Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane from a region of their lower concentration to a region of their higher concentrationâin the direction against some gradient or other obstructing factor (often a concentration gradient).
In active transport, the particles move across a cell membrane from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. Active transport is the energy-requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes uphill - against a concentration gradient. The active transport of small molecules or ions across a cell membrane is generally carried out by transport proteins that are found in the membrane. Larger molecules such as starch can also be actively transported across the cell membrane by processes called endocytosis and exocytosis.
