Students have asked these similar questions
What is active transport?
The three fundamental classes of proteins involved in transport across membranes are:
i) channelsii) pumpsiii) exchangers
For each class, describe its essential features, explain how transport is accomplished and name at least one representative example.
What are the distinctions between facilitated difussion, primary active transport and secondary active transport?
