What is the one great advantage of carrier-mediated active transport?
It is not depenent on a concentration gradient.
Which proteins are used in active and passive transport?
Carrier Proteins
Is a carrier protein an active transport or a passive transport?
They are used in both, in passive the molecules move in , then change the shape then leave and the entering and leaving are both by diffusion. in active transport molecules move in by diffusion, change the shape of the carrier protein, then because theyre moving into the cell where the molecule is in higher concentration energy is required to push the molecules out of the carrier proteins, this energy comes from ATP which is supplied to the carrier proteins.
There are two main ways in which molecules are transported into and out of cells - active transport and passive transport. Which of the following statements is true of passive transport?
Carrier proteins are sometimes used during passive transport.
Is active or passive transport hypertonic?
passive
Is carrier an active or passive transport?
It can be either. A carrier pigeon is active whereas a malaria mosquito is passive.
Are carrier proteins passive or active?
Active
Is carrier protiens active or passive transport?
it is active
Are carrier proteins active or passive transport?
Active
Is Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis Passive or Active Transport?
It is niether. Its is passive actually. http://www.mansfield.ohio-state.edu/~sabedon/campbl08.htm #38. under Endocytosis, which is active passport, includes the example of Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis.

Is carrier proteins passive transport or active transport?
Carrier proteins can use active or passive transport depending on what type of carrier protein it is (meaning what the protein transports). The form of passive transport that they use is facilitated diffusion. An example of active transport is the Sodium Potassium pump. Active transport requires ATP. Facilitated diffusion is used to transport polar molecules and ions that cannot directly cross the cell membrane. Facilitated diffusion doesn't require energy.
What are the different kind of cell transfort?
Active transport Passive transport (diffusion and transport using protein channels) Receptor mediated transport
There are two main ways in which molecules are transported into and out of cells - active transport and passive transport. Which of the following statements is true of passive transport?
Carrier proteins are sometimes used during passive transport.
How many types of Passive transport are there?
1) Passive diffusion. 2) Carrier mediated diffusion. In passive diffusion particles move from higher concentration to lower concentration. In carrier mediated passive diffusion a carrier protein comes, takes a paricle with it, go inside the cell membrane and liberate the particle inside. This is simple physics. By this way, once equal concentration is achieved (50 % on either side.) the diffusion should stop. But in biology the absorption may extend to very high level by passive diffusion. In biology on the other side of the cells there are cappilaries. They carry away the particle, say glucose, and maintain the concentration gradient. And so absorption continuesto very high level. ( Till all the particles are equally distributed.)
