Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The movement of chloride ions out of a cell by active transport is an energy-requiring process that is coupled with the hydrolysis of ATP. CFTR is a channel protein that functions as an ATP-dependent chloride channel. When ATP is hydrolyzed, it provides the energy needed to power the movement of chloride ions through the CFTR protein. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
