Question: Write membrane transport mechanism

Solutions

Expert Solution

Membrane is made up of Lipids, proteins and carbohydrates in different ratios. One of the central aspect of cell function is membrane transport. Membranes are selectively permeable. Rest is explained in my self written notes. Hope it helps. Please rate the answer.

Some solutes are able to pass directly through the lipid bilayer of a plasma membrane, whereas other solutes require a transport protein or other mechanism to cross between the inside and the outside of a cell. The fact that the plasma membrane is permeable to some solutes but not others is what is referred to as selective permeability.
