What is the difference between countertransport and antiport?
Cotransport is the name of a process in which two substances are simultaneously transported across a membrane by one protein, or protein complex which does not have ATPase activity. Different types of co-transport Symport When both substances are transported in the same direction the transport protein is known as a symport . Antiport When the substances are transported in opposite directions the transport protein is known as an antiport.
How do fats cross the cell membrane?
Transprot or exchange of ions through the lipid bilayer is done by active transport in which energy is utilized in the form of ATP or in the form of proton motive force. It is usually done as symport i.e. molecules or ions move in same direction or as antiport inwhich ions move in opposite direction.
Which process is responsible for involving an antiport carrier moving solutes in opposite directions across a cell membrane?
countertransport

Distinguish between the cotransport antiport and symport?
the main feature of cotransport is that neither molecule can move alone; movement of both molecules is obligatory or coupled.. When the transported molecule and cotransported ion move in the same direction, the process is said to be symport. when they move in opposite directions, the process is said antiport
When molecules move against their concentration gradient it is called?
This is known as active transport and requires energy usually in the form of ATP. It can also use the potential energy generated across a membrane by the transport of a different ion (either symport or antiport).
What is antiport system?
antiport system is bidirectional flow of solvent
Membrane carrier protein carrying 2 or more solutes through plasma membrane in opposite directions?
It's an antiport for opposite directions and a symport for same directions. I just spent like an hour looking this up for one question on one assignment haha.
What is a symport system?
A symport system utilizes a carrier protein to move hydrogen and chloride ions from inside to outside of the cell, and requires energy to do this.
Which type of transport is the coupled passage of two materials across a membrane?
the symport
What is the name of the carrier type that moves two solutes such as glucose and sodium?
Symport
What is an antiporter?
An antiporter is a cell protein which acts within an antiport to transport different molecules or ions across the membrane in opposite directions.

countertransport
What is a contransport?
Transport across membranes can be fueled not only by ATP, but by the energy stored in ion gradients. In such cases, the free energy released during the transport of ions down an electrochemical gradient is used to pump other ions or molecules up their electrochemical gradient. This process is called cotransport because one carrier protein mediates the transport of both species. Some cotransporters carry both solutes in the same direction (symport), while others transport one solute into the cell and the other out of the cell (antiport).
