They differ mainly by their shapes but they are an integral part of the membrane itself. The ones that are channels are open in the center. They use no energy.The ones that are pumps do not have a free opening. Also these pumps use energy to allow them to work. This use of energy (ATP) causes them to move objects against the concentration gradient.

What is the fundamental difference between carrier proteins that participate in facilitate diffusion and carrier proteins that function as pumps?

facilitated diffusion does not require energy, as it travels from a higher concentration gradient to a lower one(passive transport). Pumps do require energy to function(Active transport). This energy needed is ATP.


How are the proteins used for active transport different from those used for facilitated diffusion?

Proteins involved in active transport are called pumps and require energy, usually from ATP, to move substances against their concentration gradient. In contrast, proteins used for facilitated diffusion are channels or carriers that allow molecules to passively move down their concentration gradient without energy input. This means that active transport can concentrate substances inside or outside the cell, while facilitated diffusion helps equalize concentrations on both sides of the membrane.


What is protein pump?

it is a protein in a quatenary structure or three d sturucture with in the cell wall and transports macro molecules, hydrophobic molecules or molecules that are going agains the concentration(respectively are to big to go through, repel the cell wall, or are going against the traffic of osmosis) by using those molecules as a substrate( something that fits into a protein) and moves to the other side of the wall


What do ribosome do in animal and plant cells?

Ribosomes function in the production of proteins. These proteins include those that will remain in the cell and those that will be transported out of the cell.

How do transport proteins that are pumps differ from that are channels?

Transport proteins that are pumps differ from those that are channels in that when it pumps, it moves materials against concentration gradient. Other wise, from low to high concentration levels. Channels move materials down a concentration gradient, requiring no energy expenditure by the cell. From high concentration to low concentration levels.

What heater channels fit a 1965 karmann ghia?

For a 1965 Karmann Ghia, the correct heater channels are typically those designed for the 1965-1969 model years. These channels are specific to the Karmann Ghia and differ from those used in the Beetle. It's essential to ensure that any replacement parts are compatible with the unique body structure of the Karmann Ghia to maintain proper fit and function. Always check with a reputable supplier for the best quality and fit.


How do proteins of food differ from those of the organism consuming them?

Proteins in food are genetically programmed to give energy to the organism which eats them once digested, broken into its simplest form( amino acids ) and assimilated into the organism's system.The proteins however, in an organism are meant to either to provide structural strength and integrity to muscles or to digest food.


What does N1H1 stand for?

Hemagglutanin & Neurominadase are surface antigens. The number '1' refers to the specific sub-type of those antigens. The sub-types differ in their basic structure.

How does satellite tv differ from other conventional tv programming?

Satellite tv is prodcasted using communications satelites instead of cable wires enabling you to bounce your signal off various satellites offering a wider range of channels/services. Cable television has a specific number of stations dependent on what kind of package you have� Satellite tv has no limit of stations and can have new channels added daily based on what hits the market. The downside is you do not get local channels. It is cheaper - initially because you would have to local channels but once you add those channels then it amounts to about the same as cable.
