Thesodium-potassium pump uses active transport to move 3 sodium ions to the outside of the cell for each 2 potassium ions that it moves in.

Type of transport that requires energy?
Passive Transport
How is diffusion different from active transport?
active transport is different from diffusion. active transport has to do with the movement of chemical substance through a gradient of concentration. diffusion has to do with requiring the expenditure of energy
Passive and active transport?
Active Transpot. -Pumps -Endocytosis -Exocytosis Passive Transport - Diffusion -osmosis -Facilitated Diffusion active requires energy passive doesnt. active against concentration gradient, passive along concentration gradient.
What are the functions of cholesterol molecules in the lipid bilayer?
To transport particles in and out of the membrane. It does this by active transport, passive transport (channels, diffusion, osmosis, etc.), and exp/endocytosis.
Which structure helps transport certain materials across the cell membrane?
The question is incomplete. No options (for which of the following) are given to answer the question.
Moving particles from a place of lower to higher concentration using energy is what process?
The answer is active transports because it goes from high to low concentration h ope this helps.
How does active transport help the body?
active transport helps the body because it is the movement of substances against the concentration gradient.
How is active transport important to the organism?
it helps take in glucose in the small intestine.
Type of transport that requires energy?
Passive Transport
What is the job of the endoplasmic reticulom?
Its job is to transport materials throughout an animal, plant, or other cell type. (Not a Prison Cell Though)
What helps molecules diffuse across membrane through transport proteins?
A process known as passive transport helps molecules to diffuse across a membrane. Passive transport does not involve the use of chemical energy, unlike active transport does.
What type of active transport pump helps muscle cells contract?
the sodium potassium pump.
How is diffusion different from active transport?
active transport is different from diffusion. active transport has to do with the movement of chemical substance through a gradient of concentration. diffusion has to do with requiring the expenditure of energy
Energy for active transport comes from a cell's?
the mitochondria because this organelle helps produce ATP for energy
One type of active transport is called the pump which helps muscle cells contract?
the proton pump
What is it called when a protein helps a substance through the plasma member with the use of ATP?
This is one type of active transport. I think it might be called a pump because one example is the sodium-potassium pump, but it might also just be called active transport. Hope this helps! :)
How is the active transport different from diffusion?
The main difference is that diffusion does not require energy and active transport does require energy. Just for the record diffusion has a concentration that moves from high to low, and active transport has a concentration that moves from low to high. (Hope this helps to answer your question!)
