∙ 11y agoThe molecule to be transported binds to the membrane protein.
2. At the same time ATP binds to the protein where energy is released to cause the protein to change shape, and release the molecule on the other side.
3. The release of energy is caused by ATP splitting to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi).
4. The inorganic phosphate is then released from the pump, causing the protein to change its shape back again.

What are the two functions of proteins during cellular transport?
Proteins carry oxygen through the blood, and they also carry electrons throughout the body to enable reactions.
Where are proteins found in the cell?
In the phospholipid bilayer
What proteins enable cells to sense their surroundings?
Glycoproteins
What enable cells to reproduce and manufacture the proteins that are necessary for maintaining life?
The structures that enable cells to live and reproduce are the organelles. The organelles of a cell are like the organs found inside the human body.
What is the purpose of serous fluid?
To enable organs such as the heart and the stomach to slide across cavity walls and each other without friction.
Which cell contains membrane proteins en- abling a hormone to selectively bind to its plasma membrane?
The cell membrane contains the membrane proteins that enable a hormone to selectively bind to its plasma membrane. These proteins, such as receptor proteins, are responsible for recognizing and binding to specific hormones, allowing the hormone to exert its effects on the cell.

What is the crocodile arm function?
To enable itself to transport on to land
Identify 3 major roles of proteins?
As enzymes they can increase the rate of a reaction, in the nucleus, histones act to protect DNA, and in the plasma membrane, ion channels and other transporter proteins help shuttle nutrients and waste across the membrane.
Where are proteins found in the cell?
In the phospholipid bilayer
What proteins enable cells to sense their surroundings?
Glycoproteins
What is the function arm?
To enable itself to transport on to land
What is the advantage of short-lived proteins?
Short-lived proteins enable the cells to control their activities precisely and efficiently.
What does the transport layer header provide?
Provides values that enable different transport layer protocols to perform different functions
Does enzymes in the cell membrane enable membranes to produce chemical products?
Yes
Chemical digestion occurs in the small intestine by enzymes from intestinal - brush border cells and the?
These enzymes are anchored into the cells that make up the brush border as integral membrane proteins. These enzymes are found near the transporters that enable absorption of the digested nutrients.
Function of recognition proteins?
they enable cells to communicate with one another. It is possible due to cellular adhesion molecules on the surface of the membrane. They also distinguish foreign cells from self cells.
