Question
State two ways in which active transports differs from diffusion.
Answer
- Active transport needs energy while diffusion does not need energy
- In active transport, the movement of molecules is against the concentration gradient while in diffusion it is along the concentration gradient
- Active transport depends on the availability of oxygen for respiration while diffusion does not.
