Which mechanism transports two substances in the same direction?

Which mechanism transports two substances in the same direction?

In secondary active transport, the two molecules being transported may move either in the same direction (i.e., both into the cell), or in opposite directions (i.e., one into and one out of the cell).

What are Uniporters Symporters and Antiporters?

Uniporters, symporters, and antiporters are proteins that are used in ​transport​ of substances across a cell membrane. Antiporters transport molecules in opposite directions, while symporters transport molecules in the same direction.

Can Uniporters be bidirectional?

T/F: Uniporters cannot be bidirectional.

What are the three types of transporters?

Membrane transporters can be also divided into three main classes; ABC transporters, P-type ATPases and the solute carrier family (SLC).

What type of transport does not require ATP?

Active transport uses energy to transport molecules across the plasma membrane. This uses energy from ATP. They also use pumps to get molecules in or out of the cell. Passive Transport does NOT use energy to transport molecules across the membrane.

Which process requires ATP?

ATP is consumed for energy in processes including ion transport, muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, substrate phosphorylation, and chemical synthesis. These processes, as well as others, create a high demand for ATP.

What is the purpose of ATP in photosynthesis?

ATP can be used to store energy for future reactions or be withdrawn to pay for reactions when energy is required by the cell. Animals store the energy obtained from the breakdown of food as ATP. Likewise, plants capture and store the energy they derive from light during photosynthesis in ATP molecules.

How many ATP does it take to make glucose in photosynthesis?

2 ATP

Is FADH2 an electron carrier?

FADH2: High energy electron carrier used to transport electrons generated in Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle to the Electron Transport Chain.
