Active transport requires energy to carry a nutrient from outside the cell, through the cell membrane, and into the cell.
In contrast to passive transport, which does not require energy for the movement of molecules, active transport does. While in passive transport, molecules travel along the concentration gradient, active transport involves molecules moving against the gradient.
Active transport moving against the concentration from lower concentrations to higher concentrations. Active transport mechanism expands energy.
