3 examples of active transport?
Primary Active Transport Secondary Active Transport Exocytosis/Endocytosis
Give an example of active transport?
Hydrogen (H+) pumps.
Is potassium an active or passive transport?
It depends. Are you talking about Na/K pumps or Na/K co transporters? Pumps are active.
What type of transport requires ATP to move molecules?
Muscle contraction , transport , nerve impulse conduction .
What is an example of primary active transport?
Na+-K+ ATPase pumps
Is vesicular transport active or passive?
The contractile vacuole collects water, then pumps it out of the cell. It requires energy to be expended, so it is a type of active transport.
Is lon pumps an example of passive transport?
No, it is an example of active transport. Ion pumps, such as a sodium or potassium pump, use ATP for energy and pump ions across a membrane. The pumps are necessary because the ions are going against the concentration gradient (Low concentration to high concentration. Therefore, ion pumps are an example of active transport
The different between passive transport and active transport?
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
What means of particle transport requires input of energy in a cell?
Active transport is the term used to define the means of particle transport that requires input of energy from the cell. The opposite of this would be passive transport.
Why are carrier proteins in the cell membrane that are used for active transport called ''pumps''?
Because they remove or bring in a chemical against the gradient.
What are two types of cellular transport that do not require energy?
Passive transport never requires energy - hence the name passive. Active transport requires the input of energy. Two types of active transport are; primary (using pumps) and secondary (using anti or symports).
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.
