Active transport is a vital biological process where cells move molecules or ions —effectively "pumping" substances from areas of low concentration to high concentration. Unlike passive transport, this requires an investment of cellular energy, typically in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) . The three primary categories of active transport include: 1.
