Summary Introduction
Introduction:
All living organisms are made up of cells and its products. Cells are regarded as the simplest unit (structural and functional) of life. Cellular membrane, nucleus, and cytoplasm are the three major components of a cell. Cellular membrane, which surrounds the entire cell, is composed of phospholipids and proteins. The nucleus is bound by a nuclear membrane, and it possesses the genetic material of the cell. The cytoplasm consists of organelles, cytoskeleton (filaments and tubules), and inclusion bodies. The protoplasm denotes all living materials that are present in the cell enclosed by the cellular membrane (inside and outside the nucleus).

b.The sodium-potassium pump which is an example of primary active transport is considered as the most important pump.
c. In primary active transport, the energy is derived secondarily from energy that has been stored in the form of ionic concentration differences between the two sides of a membrane.
If the concentration of a solute is the same both inside and outside the cell, what might you expect with regard to its transport by a membrane protein?
A. Since there is no concentration gradient, no transport either in or out of the cell is possible.
B. The transport protein has been saturated.
C. The solute must be phosphorylated with a phosphate group from ATP before further transport can occur.
D. Movement of the solute across the membrane could occur and cause accumulated on one side of the membrane by an active transport protein.
