Cotransport

The active transport of a substance from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration by coupling its transport to the transport of a substance down its concentration gradient.

Concentration Gradient

A gradual change in the concentration of solutes in a solution as a function of distance through a solution.

ATP

Adenosine Triphosphate, a molecule that stores and transfers energy within cells, crucial for many cellular processes.
