Question 3

Multiple Choice

An experiment is done to measure the uptake of an amino acid into a cell.The following data are obtained: An experiment is done to measure the uptake of an amino acid into a cell.The following data are obtained:   If Na<sup>+</sup> is removed from the extracellular bathing solution,or if a drug is added that prevents the cell from making adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ,the uptake of amino acid into the cell is markedly reduced.According to this information,which of the following mechanisms is probably responsible for the transport of the amino acid into the cell? A) Passive diffusion through the lipid bilayer B) Uniporter C) Transport ATPase D) Na<sup>+</sup> symporter E) Na<sup>+</sup> antiporter If Na+ is removed from the extracellular bathing solution,or if a drug is added that prevents the cell from making adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ,the uptake of amino acid into the cell is markedly reduced.According to this information,which of the following mechanisms is probably responsible for the transport of the amino acid into the cell?
