Which of these is an example of active transport? A) Diffusion of oxygen from a place of high concentration to a place of lower concentration B) Facilitated diffusion of K⁺ C) Transport of glucose down its concentration gradient D) Transport of Na⁺ from a place of low concentration to a place of higher concentration E) Transport of Cl^- following its concentration gradient

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against their concentration gradient, requiring energy in the form of ATP. In this case, the transport of Na⁺ from a place of low concentration to a place of higher concentration is an example of active transport.
