Match the following concerning concentration differences across the plasma membrane. -Requires ATP A)Concentration of K⁺ B)Concentration of Na⁺ and Cl⁻ C)Negatively charged proteins D)Sodium-potassium pump E)Plasma membrane is more permeable to this ion because of leak ion channels

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sodium-potassium pump is an example of a mechanism that requires ATP to maintain concentration differences across the plasma membrane. It actively transports sodium (Na+) out of the cell and potassium (K+) into the cell against their concentration gradients.
