Active protein transporters which move substances from lower concentration into higher concentration
are known as
channels
ligands
transponders
pumps - Answers pumps
Primary active transport involves one substance moving down its concentration gradient to move
another substance against its electrochemical gradient.
True
False - Answers False
A protein transporter which moves two substances by secondary active transport in the same direction
is known as a
symporter
transponder
antiporter
inductor - Answers symporter
Endocytosis is the inward movement of a large particle into the cell by means of vesicular transport.
True
False - Answers True
The transport of amino acids into the cell results when sodium ions move down their electrical gradient
and cause amino acids to move into the cell against their electrochemical gradient. This is an example of
, vesicular transport
secondary active transport
simple diffusion
primary active transport - Answers secondary active transport
The process by which a cell produces extensions to engulf a particle or unwanted cell so it is taken into
the attacking cell is known as
pinocytosis
primary active transport
phagocytosis
secondary active transport - Answers phagocytosis
When a pouch forms in the cell membrane to enclose extracellular fluid in a vesicle in order to transport
that fluid into the cell, the process is known as exocytosis.
True
False - Answers False
The movement of one substance into the cell by vesicular transport at the same rate another substance
is moved out of the cell also by vesicular transport, the process is known as
vesicular reflex
intracellular balance
transcytosis
maintenance of membrane integrity - Answers trancytosis
