ANSWER :-
POINT 1 : Lets consider there is a membrane which separates a beaker into two compartments. The membrane is a semi-permeable membrane which allows only certain molecules or ions to pass through them. In one compartment there is large concentration of a molecule lets consider NaCl and in the other compartment the concentration is less. Normally, there is direct transfer via diffusion from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration but when this process is reversed there is requirement of energy to create the backward transport and this is called as active transport.
POINT 2 : Lets consider the example of intestinal cells. The space within the intestine is called as intestinal lumen and this is in association with the enterocytes which are the epithelial cells lining the intestine. They are present on the intestinal villi. Basically, in the first process, there is entry of the sodium ions from the enterocytes into the intestinal lumen. This creates a greater concentration of sodium ions in the lumen and less in the enterocyte. This is responsible for driving the movement of glucose molecules via a co-transporter into the enterocyte which is against the concentration gradient by means of active transport. This is the symporter system.
POINT 3 : This process can also be seen in the roots of the plants. The root hairs are basically provided with carrier protein molecules which usually work in accordance with energy molecules such as ATP that is an output of cellular respiration to mediate transport of mineral ions from the soil into the root. There is less concentration of ions outside the root hair and more concentration of ions inside but the cells cannot lose their ions and hence active transport plays a vital role in maintaining the initial concentration and adding additional ions to the cells.
POINT 4 : The third example includes the process in which components like lipid molecules and hormones are being taken up by the cells by means of receptor-mediated endocytosis in which ATP molecules are utilised to drive the absorption of the components against the concentration gradient.

Give a summary of active transport. Be sure to include why it is consider "active," what...
Why does active transport require an input of energy (needs to include equilibrium and the laws of thermodynamics in the answer) Explain the difference between primary and secondary active transport, provide examples of each.
What is the difference between passive and active transport? Provide an example of a transport protein involved in the passive transport of K+, and one protein involved in the active transport of K+ across the plasma membrane and explain the direction of the flow of K+ in each case (from inside the cell to the outside, or from the outside of the cell to the inside). Also explain for each of your examples if the transport is uniport, symport, or...
Classify the phrases based on whether they describe or give an example of facilitated diffusion, active transport, or both. Facilitated diffusion Active transport Both Answer Bank movement to area of lower concentration movement across a membrane movement assisted by proteins glucose transport into muscle cell sodium ion transport out of cell requires energy

Compare and contrast the terms active transport with facilitated diffusion addressing the same issues as above. 3. Draw a diagram of a membrane receptor and include the following details. Include a depiction of the plasma membrane with which it is associated; label the locations of the extracellular space, the cytoplasm, and...
11. Discuss/explain/draw what both active and passive transport are and the details of those transport processes in the cell. Include the types of active (3) and passive (3) transport methods and how materials move across the cell membrane including details of what is moved and how. (10 pts)

Practice cont. I perform an experiment in which I find the concentration of substrate changing on either side of a membrane. Calculate the free energy for movement of substrate into the cell. Slin 10nM and [Sout 2nM Is this likely to be active or passive transport? What do you expect to happen if I introduce the small molecule inhibitor discussed previously?
Please make sure you typed the answer, not write, and
explain the answer in details please. paragraph format
please.
