Would a cell ever use active transport to move water across its membrane? Explain.
Migrating fish would be rapidly transferring substances across cell membranes. The substances would include sodium, water, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and steroids. Which of these would most likely be moved via active transport? Why?
Compare and contrast the following methods of a passing cell membrane in terms of movement with respect to the concentration gradient, use of ATP, and the use of transporters with examples.

- Why is it advantageous for the cell membrane to be fluid in nature?arrow_forwardName two types of passive transport and one type of active transport.arrow_forwardWhich feature is typical of primary active transport? The transport protein must cross to the correct side of the membrane before the solute can bind to it. The transport protein is irreversibly phosphorylated as transport takes place. The transport protein catalyzes the conversion of ADP to ATP. The solute moves against the concentration gradient. A concentration gradient provides the energy to move substances against their concentration gradient.arrow_forward

- A migraine fish would be rapidly transferring substances across cell membrane. The substances would include sodium, water, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and steroids. Which of those would most likely be moved via active transport? Why?arrow_forwardWhich is the complete description of active transport? The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower A concentration across a selectively permeable membrane which uses metabolic energy from ATP. The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower B concentration across a selectively permeable membrane which does not use metabolic energy from ATP. The movement of molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher C concentration across a selectively permeable membrane which uses metabolic energy from ATP and transport proteins.
