Question
one transport mechanism to move sugars into cells against their concentration gradient is
multiple choice
facilitated diffusion
symport with sodium
simple diffusion
antiport with sodium
osmosis
Facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion move substances down their concentration gradients. Antiport with sodium moves substances in opposite directions relative to sodium. Symport with sodium is a secondary - active transport mechanism that can move sugars into cells against their concentration gradient by coupling with the movement of sodium ions down their concentration gradient.
