In active transport, the affinity of the carrier protein for the molecule being transported is greater on which side of the membrane?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In active transport, the carrier protein has a greater affinity for the molecule being transported on the side where the molecule is in lower concentration. This is because active transport mechanisms work against the concentration gradient, moving molecules from areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration, which requires energy input.
