The primary difference between active transport and facilita

The primary difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion is that active transport is the only one of the two in which the direction of transport is [S]_low rightarrow [S]_high the direction of transport is- [S]high rightarrow [S]_low transporter proteins are required the mechanism is not storable the S concentration grade provides the energy necessary for S transport

Solution

The answer for the above question is : the direction of transport is [S] low to [S] high.

The active transport is different from facilitated transport because it uses energy to move the molecules AGAINST the concentration gradient i.e., from a region of lower concentration to the region of higher concentration.

We can take the example of intestines, where the concentration of nutrients are already very high in the cells.
