help fill in these blanks in [] Sodium-potassium ATPases are [passive/active] transporters that move sodium and potassium [with/against] their electrochemical gradients. In other words, potassium and sodium transport, without any coupled process, are [endergonic/exergonic] processes. These transporters are [primary active/facilitated/secondary active] transporters meaning that the transport process is coupled to [ATP hydrolysis/ion diffusion] to make the process spontaneous. P-type ATPases are [acid-base/covalent/nucleophilic] catalysts that become phosphorylated during the transport cycle. The sodium-potassium ATPase moves [3/2/1] cations out of the cell for every [1/2/3] cations it moves into the cell, polarizing the membrane such that the inside is [positive/negative] compared to the outside.
