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
What is antiporter?
An antiporter is a cell protein which acts within an antiport to transport different molecules or ions across the membrane in opposite directions.
Some cells employ a countertransport or antiport mechanism to maintain a high extracellular Ca2 concentration coupled to the passive inward diffusion of Na This best describes?
secondary active transport of Ca2+ out of the cell
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 organ system does the brain belong too?
The nervous system The central nervous system
What is the difference between symport and antiport?
the numbers in front how much they can carry
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.
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.
Which process is responsible for involving an antiport carrier moving solutes in opposite directions across a cell membrane?
countertransport

What is antiporter?
An antiporter is a cell protein which acts within an antiport to transport different molecules or ions across the membrane in opposite directions.
What type of transport molecule transports the solute and the co-transported solute in the opposite direction?
antiport: transports 2 solutes in opposite directions (example: Na/K pump)

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.
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.
What is the eight system of human body?
The twelve system of the human body are Skeletal System, Muscular System, Circulatory System, Exretory System, Nervous System, Digestive System, Resperatory System, Reproductive System, Immune System, Lymphatic System, Integumentary System and the Endocrine System.
