When the nerves deliver a signal to contract, Ca++ (calcium ions) rush into the cell. The calcium ion influx causes specialized fibers to contract. Afterward, calcium ions are pumped out of the cell by calcium ATPases. What transport type(s) is occuring?s antiporter only ion gated transport followed by active transport active transport only ion gated transport only active transport followed by ion gated transport
A solution of water and dissolved ions is separated by a selectively permeable membrane that allows the passage of water but not small ions. The concentration of sodium is higher on one side of the membrane than onthe other side. However, there is no net movement of water across the membrane. How is this possible?

Which of the following is true regarding bulk transport? ATP is required to pump molecules against the concentration gradient Bulk transport is an example of passive transport Transport of large quantities of materials ATP changes the shape of a protein channel during active transport
The movement of water is called osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water, and it too moves to reach equilibrium. The relationship between solute concentration and water are opposite. An area with high concentration of solute has less water "concentration", and an area of low solute concentration has a higher water "concentration". Select the options that describe the movement of water if there is a gradient across a membrane. Hint: There are two correct answers. One with the solute perspective and one with a water perspective. Select all that apply: Water moves from an area of high solute concentration to an area of low solute concentration. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. Water moves from an area of high water "concentration" to an area of low water "concentration". Water moves from an area of low water "concentration" to an area of high water "concentration".
