In intestinal epithelial cells, the following conditions exist: a. Na+ concentrations are higher outside of the cell. The Na+ concentration gradient is maintained by the consumption of ATP. b. Amino acid concentration is higher inside the cell. c. Amino acid transporters are membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of amino across the plasma membrane, moving both amino and Na+ into the cell. Based on the facts above, this mechanism is categorized as ______________.

Potassium ions (K+) move across a 7.0-nm- thick cell membrane from the inside to the outside. The potential inside the cell is −80.0 mV, and the potential outside is zero. What is the change in the electrical potential energy Δ? electric of the potassium ions as they move across the membrane?
1. Animal cells have a Na,K pump that couples the energy of ATP hydrolysis to transport 3 Na ions out of the cell and 2 K ions into the cell. Inside astrocytes, the concentration of Na is 20 mM and the concentration of K is 130 mM. The extracellular concentrations of Na and K are 145 mM and 5 mM, respectively. Calculate the energy required for the transport of Na and K , with this stoichiometry; assume that the cell...
