Question 4 (1 point)

Choose all of the following that are consistent with protein mediated transport.

Question 4 options:

end point of active transport is equilibrium

facilitated transport acts to dissipate a gradient

highly specific match between a transporter and a solute

can be facilitated but not active transport

can be used to transport water

Explanation / Answer

Answer: Options A, B, C, and E are correct.

Explanation:

Active transport can achieve a form of equilibrium.

Facilitated transport occurs along the concentration gradient. So, it dissipates the concentration gradient.

Carrier-mediated transport is highly sensitive.

Aquaporins are proteins that facilitate transport of water molecules in and out of a cell.
