it lets in material to the cell which it needs like a filter it allows water but not other material.
carrier protein
Carrier Protein
A carrier protein is a type of protein that helps transport specific molecules across cell membranes. These proteins bind to molecules on one side of the membrane and release them on the other side, facilitating their movement into or out of cells. Carrier proteins play a crucial role in maintaining cellular function by regulating the transport of essential molecules.
osmosis
carrier protein
the carrier protein changes shape to release the molecule inside of a cell
carrier protein
Yes, facilitated diffusion requires a carrier or channel protein for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.
A carrier protein helps transport molecules across a cell membrane by binding to specific molecules and changing shape to move them across the membrane.
Phospholipids
Yes, the sodium-potassium pump is a type of carrier protein that helps transport sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane.
The molecule adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is the energy carrier of the cell.
