Yes, active transport requires carrier proteins in order to function. These require ATP to carry things in and out of the cell.

Yes ! Active Transport is the movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to high concentration against equilibrium. Active transport requires energy and a transport protein.

What are a series of carrier proteins?

Active transport involves carrier proteins. Carrier proteins bind themselves to particles and transport them to highly concentrated areas within a cell.Facilitated diffusion and active transport require carrier proteins.


How is faciliated transport similar to active transport?

Both facilitated transport and active transport require the substance that passes the membrane to pass through intermembrane proteins. However, unlike active transport, facilitated transport does not require ATP because it is not actively going against the concentration gradient.


Does simple diffusion require transport proteins?

no, but active transport on the other hand, does require transport proteins to transport the large molecules into the cell.


What is the role of transport proteins in active transport?

Active transport requires energy, unlike passive transport. The carrier proteins in active transport act as a "pump" ( fueled by ATP) to carry/attach themselfves to useful proteins for the cell.
