Question

Which of the following is correct about carrier proteins?

  1. It helps in water transport.
  2. It helps in active transport of ions.
  3. It helps in passive transport of ions.
  4. It doesn’t help in any of the processes.

hintHint:

The ions are passed through the cell by the active transport of carrier proteins.

The correct answer is: It helps in active transport of ions.


    • The ion exchange is mainly done by carrier proteins.
    • The charged ions are carried in and out of the cell by active transport.
    • The transport requires energy and keeps the concentration balanced in and out of cells.
