What is a protein used to transport specific substances?
carrier protein
Protein used to transport specific substances?
carrier proteins
Are carrier proteins specific in their action?
Yes, carrier proteins are specific for the substances they transport across the plasma membrane.
What is the function of a transport protein?
Transport protein provide channels for certain solutesTransport proteins are embedded in cellular membranes. They permit the passage across the membrane of substances that cannot pass through the phospholipid bilayer.Substances may pass through transport proteins by diffusion (often called facilitated diffusion because these substances cannot pass through any other part of the membrane) or by active transport.Transport proteins are subdivided into categories, such as channel proteins and carrier proteins, depending on details of their functioning.

What is a protein used to transport specific substances?
carrier protein
How do carrier proteins recognize substances to transport in active transport?
substance to pass
Protein used to transport specific substances?
carrier proteins
What are proteins found in cell membranes that transport large molecules?
carrier molecules
What functions do carrier proteins perform in active transport?
Carrier proteins of the cell membrane transport substances down their concentration gradient out of or into the cell by facilitated diffusion and active transport.
Are carrier proteins specific in their action?
Yes, carrier proteins are specific for the substances they transport across the plasma membrane.
Which mmolecules help control movement of substances through cell mmembrans?
Carrier proteins or transport proteins.
Are responsible for the transport of substances down a concentration gradient during facilitated diffusion.?
Carrier proteins
In active transport carrier proteins do what?
They help transfer substances from the outside of the cell membrane to the inside.
Carrier proteins transport glucose into a muscle cell.?
carrier proteins transport glucose into a muscle cell
What are responsible for the transport of substances down a concentration gradient during facilitated diffusion?
Carrier proteins.
What substances are too large for carrier proteins?
Glucose...It's a HUGE molecule that is broken down into Glycogen for storage.
