Concentration gradient and active and passive transport
What is the relationship between concentration gradient and active and passive transport?
Expert
Passive transport is the movement of substances across membranes in favor of their concentration gradient, that is, from a more concentrated region to a less concentrated region. Active transport, on the other side, is transportation of substances across membranes against their concentration gradient, since a less concentrated to more concentrated region. In the passive transport, as it is spontaneous, there is no energy exhausted; the active transport however requires energy (work) to occur.
Active transport works to uphold or raise the concentration gradient of a substance between two regions while passive transport acts in a manner to reduce the concentration gradient.
