The movement of a substance through the cell membrane that requires energy.

Answer 1

The correct answer is - active transport.

Step-by-step explanation:

Active transport is the movement of a substance that crosses the cell membrane against the concentration gradient and therefore requires energy in the form of ATP. In contrast, passive transport does not require energy for the movement of a substance through the cell membrane as it moves to the concentration gradient.

This movement of molecules is towards the region of high concentration from the region of lower concentration through the cell membrane by elcectrochemical gradient or ATP.
