Psychology Terms - Active transport
refers to the translocation of particles across an electrochemical potential gradient, exemplified as the migration of sodium ions across a cell membrane from an area of low concentration to one of high concentration. This process necessitates metabolic energy and is facilitated by enzymes, sometimes referred to as pumps when performing this role.
