Question : When transport proteins simultaneously move two molecules across a membrane in the same direction ,the process is called

Answer»

uniport
antiport
symport
diffusive port.

Solution :Some CARRIES proteins allow transport only if TWO types of molecules move together. This is CALLED co-transport. It is of two TYPE: symport and antiport method. In symport method of co-transport, both molecules CROSS the membrane in the same direction at the same time. In antiport method of co-transport, both molecules move in opposite direction. When a molecules moves across a membrane independent of other molecule, the process is called uniport.
