Final answer:

Active transport requires energy to move substances across the plasma membrane.

Step-by-step explanation:

Active transport requires energy to move substances across the plasma membrane, often because the substances are moving from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration or because of their large size. Two examples of active transport are the sodium-potassium pump and vesicle transport.
