BIO3(Jasmin) Flashcards
It is a cellular transport mechanism that
involves the movement of molecules against
their concentration gradient with energy
expenditure.
Active Transport
moves sodium ions (Na+) to the outside of the cell and potassium ions (K+) into the cell.
Sodium-Potassium Pump
It simply binds to the calcium ions and pumps them out of the cell.
calcium pumps
___ _________ usually gated. They will open when certain conditions are met.
Ion channels
the movement of molecules or ions down the concentration with the help of membrane transport proteins.
Facilitated transport
1.___ is abundant outside, while 2.__ is more abundant inside the cell. To balance these charges, the cell also maintains a relatively high 3.___ outside the cell
1.Na+
2. K+
3.Cl−
are carrier proteins that transport glucose down their concentration gradient.
Glucose transporters
