Active Transport and the Sodium Pump
Active Transport and the Sodium Pump Element Learning Outcomes: -Describe the structure and function of the sodium pump, explain how it regulates ion concentrations and the clinical and physiological significance of this -Explain the clinical significance of the interaction between the binding of the cardiac glycosides and the extracellular potassium concentration -Explain, with example substances, the key features, energetics, differences and similarities of/ between primary active transport and secondary active transport. -Explain the mechanisms of sodium dependent calcium transport and the transepithelial transport of glucose
