Topic 2.8: Mechanisms of Transport

Learning Objective: 2.8.A

Describe the processes that allow ions and other molecules to move across membranes.

Essential Knowledge: 2.8.A.1

Metabolic energy (such as that from ATP) is required for active transport of molecules and ions across the membrane and to establish and maintain electrochemical gradients. i. Membrane proteins are necessary for active transport. ii. The Na⁺/K⁺ pump and ATPase contribute to the maintenance of the membrane potential.
