- Synopsis
- These pages show diagrams of different types of active transport. It is a multi-page image set on three pages. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left when the image is the correct way up. Active transport, transport protein: There are three diagrams on the page, each surrounded by a dashed image border. The transport protein is circular with a rounded recess in it. It is embedded in the cell membrane. In the first image it has got hold of a round molecule. In the second image it rotates taking the molecule into the cell. In the last image it returns to the original position, ready for a new molecule. The transport protein requires energy to do this work. Active transport, respiration: This page has a simple curved line graph. It shows that as the rate of active transport increases (Y-axis), the rate of respiration also increases (x-axis). Active transport, concentration gradient: This page shows a diagram of some plant roots shown in a cross section of soil. It is surrounded by a dashed line image border. Mineral ions are represented by small open circles. The concentration of ions in the root is higher than in the soil showing that active transport has moved the ions against a concentration gradient.
