1. Active transport Requires the cell to use energy (ATP)
Moves from an area of lower
concentration to an area of
higher concentration
Moves UP the concentration
gradient
Types of Active Transport
Ion pumps/ion channels
Sodium-potassium pump
(Na+-K+ pump)

2. Types of Active Transport
Exocytosis – using vesicles to remove material out of the cell requiring energy

3. Types of Active Transport
Endocytosis – using vesicles to take material into the cell requiring energy
Pinocytosis – taking in liquid (like in digestion)
Phagocytosis – taking in particles (like the white blood cell phagocytes do)
