Membrane Physiology carriers use ion gradient as energy to drive transport pumps establish electrochemical gradient general chemiosmotic cycle a symporter carrier brings in two chemicals one draws in water when entering a pump is then turned on to flush out the one that draws water this prevents over hydration epithelial transport apical - surface exposed to lumen basolateral - the side towards interstitial space and blood process of transport of substrates through apical surface out basolateral side that process through top symporter that drew in Sodium is then pumped out potassium is balanced through a channel and leakage channels regulate membrane permeability | |
