A) 3 ions of\[N{{a}^{+}}\]are pumped out and\[2{{K}^{+}}\]are taken in
B) 3 ions of\[N{{a}^{+}}\]are taken in and\[2{{K}^{+}}\]are pumped out.
C) 2 ions of\[N{{a}^{+}}\]are thrown out and\[3{{K}^{+}}\]are absorbed
D) 3 ions of\[{{K}^{+}}\]are absorbed and\[3N{{a}^{+}}\]are pumped out
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Energy from ATP cause confermational change in the solute carrier complex. From energy of one ATP,\[3N{{a}^{+}}\]pumped outside and two \[{{K}^{+}}\] taken in. This process of expelling out\[N{{a}^{+}}\]ions and drawing in\[{{K}^{+}}\]ions against the concentration gradient and electrochemical gradient is called sodium-protassium exchange pump of the cell.You need to login to perform this action.
