Exercise 2

Telling Them Apart. From the following list of properties, indicate which one(s)can be used to distinguish between each of the following pairs of transport mechanisms.
Transport Mechanisms
(a)Simple diffusion; facilitated diffusion
(b)Facilitated diffusion; active transport
(c)Simple diffusion; active transport
(d)Direct active transport; indirect active transport
(e)Symport; antiport
(f)Uniport; coupled transport
(g)P-type ATPase; V-type ATPase
Properties
1. Directions in which two transported solutes move
2. Direction the solute moves relative to its concentration gradient or its electrochemical potential
3. Kinetics of solute transport
4. Requirement for metabolic energy
5. Requirement for simultaneous transport of two solutes
6. Intrinsic directionality
7. Competitive inhibition
8. Sensitivity to the inhibitor vanadate
