What is an example of active transport?

Biology

Active transport refers to a substance moving from areas in which it has low concentration to an area with high concentration, one example i guess is endocytosis, "<span>the taking in of matter by a living cell by invagination of its membrane to form a vacuole"</span>

A common example of active transport, or moving a substance against its gradient, is the maintaining of a balance of sodium and potassium inside and outside a cell. Obviously too much sodium inside the cell would cause cell death. So, the cell must actively regulate how much sodium is allowed in through the membrane.

How many electrons are transferred in the ionic bond between sodium and chlorine in NaCl
Tpy6a [65]

One electron is transferred in the ionic bond because sodium needs to lose one electron and chlorine needs to gain one electron to have a full energy shell, which is the ultimate goal in any bond.

Which of the following is/are common to chemiosmosis and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis? electron transport onl
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Both electron transport and a proton gradient

Explanation:

The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.

Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.

Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
