Primary Active Transport Secondary Active Transport

Active transport is a type of transport across cell membranes that requires energy input to move molecules or ions against their concentration gradient. This process is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis, regulating the balance of fluids and electrolytes, and facilitating the uptake of essential nutrients. There are two main types of active transport: primary active transport and secondary active transport.
