Which of the following accurately describes an example of how materials can move across the cell membrane through active transport? Answer A protein acts as a channel to allow large, hydrophilic molecules to diffuse across the cell membrane. A protein acts as a pump and moves calcium ions from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay. you have to describe ACTIVE transport. your available answers are tunnel and pump. would it really be tunnel? or isn't the pump more active? :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldnt it be pump because it moving ... How old are you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean its

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't understand your reasoning for it not being a pump. what do you think is moving?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its being transported isn't it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there for it's being moved around...... Im 16 and you ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is "it"???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, the materials are moved. now I ask you for your common sense. can a tunnel move stuff around? can a pump move stuff around? I'm to bed, cya.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is "cya"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and cant a pump move stuff its a pump

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you suggested tunnel, if I may remind you. I want you now to read both threads thoroughly, then think about how irritating that just was, extract the right answer and learn for next time. just be clear in what you say, that's the core skill of every scientist. pump is right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jacobbenvenutty):
