Glucose transport across cell membranes varies depending upon blood glucose levels. When glucose levels are high, glucose transport is accomplished via membrane transporters. When glucose concentrations are low, the transport of glucose across the membrane is dependent upon the sodium ion concentration. What types of transport is observed for glucose? A)simple diffusion at high [glucose], secondary active transport at low [glucose] B)facilitated diffusion at high [glucose], secondary active transport at low [glucose] C)simple diffusion at high [glucose], primary active transport at low [glucose] D)facilitated diffusion at high [glucose], primary active transport at low [glucose]
For each type of membrane transport, know the following:– Is a transporter protein required? If so, what type?– Is there an energy requirement, and if so, what is the energy source?– What is the relative rate of solute transport based on molecule type? On concentration gradient?– What are examples of the types of solutes transported by carriers and channels?
Define the difference between passive transport and active transport, and give examples of each. Each example should specify the type of cell, the name of the membrane protein(s), and the substance that is being transported.
A migrating fish would be rapidly transferring substances across cell membranes. These substances would include sodium, water, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and steroids. Which of those would be most likely to be moved via active transport? Why? What is a transmembrane gradient? What is an electrochemical gradient?
Active transport across membrane can be mediated by the following mechanisms: “Uphill” transport is powered by energy from photons. A solute is driven “uphill” compensated by a different solute being transported “downhill.” “Uphill” transport is powered by ATP hydrolysis. All of the above. None of the above.
As a cell grows its plasma membrane expands. Does this involve endocytosis or exocytosis? ATP is not directly involved in the functioning of a co-transporter. Why, then, is co-transport considered active transport?
Which feature is typical of primary active transport? The transport protein must cross to the correct side of the membrane before the solute can bind to it. The transport protein is irreversibly phosphorylated as transport takes place. The transport protein catalyzes the conversion of ADP to ATP. The solute moves against the concentration gradient. A concentration gradient provides the energy to move substances against their concentration gradient
What type of energy helps drive the passive processes of diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion? (Pick ALL correct statements involved with this.) In other words what are all the TRUE statements regarding these processes? Select one or more: a.random motion which increases when temperature increases b.ATP energy c.random motion which increases when molecules have large molecular weight d.random motion which increases when molecules concentration decreases e.random motion which increases when molecules concentration increases f.random motion which decreases when temperature decreases g.random motion which increases when molecules have low molecular weight
In primary/direct active transport, does ATP always have to be involved? Definitions seem to say the movement must be coupled with an exergonic reaction. Wouldn't the movement of a solute down its concentration gradient be exergonic, or is this an incorrect statement?
