Primary and Secondary Active Transport
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Primary active transport uses ATP directly against a gradient; secondary active transport spends no ATP, drawing on a gradient a primary pump built.
Show
Sodium's gradient, built by the sodium-potassium pump's ATP use, powers glucose's secondary transport at no added cost.
Watch for
Secondary transport still moves a substance against its gradient — it borrows energy another pump paid for.
