Summary Introduction
To determine:
Examples of cotransport.
Introduction:
Coupled transport or cotransport is the movement of two molecules in the same direction. The carrier or transport protein which carries out the cotransport process does not possess ATPase (Adenosine Triphosphatase) activity.

OC. An increase in chloride secretion will withdraw water from lumen content.
D. An increase in salt and water secretion can lead to diarrhea.
