What are 3 types of active transport?

It is usually powered by ATP. Examples of active transport include the Sodium-Potassium Pump (primary transport), the Na+/glucose symporter (secondary transport), and endocytosis and exocytosis (bulk transport).

What are examples of active transport?

Examples of active transport include the transportation of sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell by the sodium-potassium pump. Active transport often takes place in the internal lining of the small intestine.

In which beaker will water move out of the cell?

hypertonic solution
If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, there will be a net flow of water out of the cell, and the cell will lose volume. A solution will be hypertonic to a cell if its solute concentration is higher than that inside the cell, and the solutes cannot cross the membrane.

What are 2 types of active transport?

Two types of active transport are membrane pumps (such as the sodium-potassium pump) and vesicle transport.

What is the source of energy in active transport?

ATP
Primary active transport directly uses a source of chemical energy (e.g., ATP) to move molecules across a membrane against their gradient.

Is active transport high to low?

During active transport, substances move against the concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.

Where is active transport used?

Active transport is used in root hairs for absorbing minerals out of the soil (from a low to high concentration). It is used in digestion when there is a lower concentration of nutrients in the gut, and a higher concentration in the bloodstream.

Does active transport require energy?

Active transport requires energy for the process by transporting molecules against a concentration or electrochemical gradient.

What are the 2 types of active transport?

Does active transport use ATP?

Primary active transport directly uses a source of chemical energy (e.g., ATP) to move molecules across a membrane against their gradient.
