PART 1: Objective Type1._____________& 2.____________ What are the other terms used for Transport Proteins?
3. ____________ is a type of protein substrate transport that requires chemicals or cellular energy to mediate a specific solute.
4. ____________ is a type of protein substrate transport that passively carries biochemicals or molecular substances with the flow of the solvent across the cell membrane.
5. – 10. True or False:
______________ The substrate or the molecule, chemical, ion or substance to be transported must first bind at a binding site of the carrier or transport protein molecules to which it has a certain binding affinity with.
______________ Transport protein or Carrier molecules are generally firmly packed with polar regions on the outside.
______________ Polar regions from the outside of some specific molecules are utilized to intensify the solubility in water of most substances in the body that are not dissolved in water.
______________ Via Transport Proteins, the substrate will be discharged at the appropriate site and all steps are irreversible.
______________ After the substrate has associated with the transport protein molecule, it will temporarily alter its molecular and chemical structures.
______________ Transport proteins or Carrier molecules do not initiate the body regulation of the amount of specific biochemical processes.
PART 2: AnalysisExplain briefly how specific transport proteins recognize specific substances and the processes that occur or that are involved in the transportation of appropriate molecules.
