Channel proteins and transporter proteins, their importance).arrow_forwardsecondary active transport depends on which of the following principles? a. sodium is pumped out of the cell against a concentration gradient by primary active transport b. sodium moves out of the cell with a concentration gradient c. primary active transport is necessary to pump sodium into the cell from a higher to lower concentration d. diffusion causes sodium to move out of the cellarrow_forward10. What is osmosis? Is it correct to call it the diffusion of water across a membrane permeable only to the solvent, (water), and impermeable to the solutes? Define and understand the terms: isotonic, hypotonic, hypertonic. What are the these conditions on cells with or without cell walls? consequences ofarrow_forward
- 7. Which of the following membrane transport proteins would you expect to be the most selective (although not the most rapid)? the bicarbonate ion channel the glucose carrier protein the potassium ion channel the chloride ion channel the sodium ion channelarrow_forwardMatch the following statement related to membrane transport processes to the appropriate term or terms: passive transport, facilitated transport, active transport. A transporter (or carrier) protein is necessary. (Select all that apply.) passive transport facilitated transport active transport O Oarrow_forwardone reason active transport has a limited maximum transport rate at which it can progress is due to the fact that a. energy required is not available inside the cell b. carrier proteins are not on the surface of the cell membrane c. ion channels are limited in size d. the number of carrier proteins is limited and therefore they can become saturatedarrow_forward

Explain the significance of each and whether it is an active or passive process.arrow_forward5arrow_forwardDuring digestion, the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in the stomach rises to many times that within the cells lining the stomach, where H+ are produced.
