Yes primary active transport machinery (protein pumps) relies on phosphorylation of the carrier protein. ATP hydrolysis yields the phosphate molecule to interact with the protein pump. This cause the conformational change in the ion channel protein to carry out exchange of ions. For example: sodium-potassium pump: binding of phosphate release sodium from cell, whereas dephosphorylation allows the entry of potassium ions inside the cell.

What are passive and active transport?
Passive transport and active transport are transport of materials across membranes. Passive requires no energy, while active does.
What is it called when materials move from lower to higher concentration?
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
What is the process that requires the use of energy to move materials across a membrane?
I believe it's active transport. active transport is correct.
Which type of membrane transport process uses ATP as a source of energy?
Active transport uses ATP as an energy source.
What types of transport require ATP?
The two types of cell trnsport it Passive Transport and Active Transport. Active Transport does require energy to move into and out of the cell. Passive Transport doesn't require energy to move into and out of the cell. Hope I helped!
Both active transport and facilitated diffusion involve what?
Carrier proteins
What is a good sentence for Active Transport?
Active Transport is carried out in our body cells. Active Transport uses energy to transport materials.
Is testosterone a passive transport or an active transport?
it is an ACTIVE transport.
Is an active transport active or passive?
It has is in the name. Active Transport
What requires ATP cellular energy?
Active Transport
What is it called when molecules uses energy to move across a semipermeable membrane?
Active transport
Are fats absorbed by active transport or passive transport?
active transport
Is active transport an active or passive process?
It has is in the name. Active Transport
What is the Method of movement that requires the expenditure of ATP molecules is?
active transport
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 process requires cells to expend energy in the form of ATP?
active transport
What are passive and active transport?
Passive transport and active transport are transport of materials across membranes. Passive requires no energy, while active does.
