Co Transport Flashcards
1
Q
What is the first step of co transport?
A
- sodium potassium pump
- sodium ions pumped out of cell to blood (against concentration gradient)
- low concentration of sodium ions in cell
2
Q
What is the second step of co transport?
A
- co transporter carrier proteins allow 2 molecules in
- sodium ions and glucose/amino acid
3
Q
What is the third step of co transport?
A
- glucose/amino acid goes into blood stream via channel protein
