Question

which movement of particles would be most affected by a disorder that causes damage to carrier proteins?
osmosis
passive transport
active transport
diffusion

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Active transport requires carrier proteins to move particles against their concentration gradient. Diffusion and passive transport (including osmosis) do not rely on carrier proteins for the basic movement of particles down their concentration gradient. So damage to carrier proteins would most affect active transport.

Answer:

B. active transport
