Respuesta :
One statement that would be true of a membrane-bound protein that works in conjunction with a sodium-potassium pump during secondary active transport would be that it will only activate when both a specific small molecule and ion bond to it.
What we know about these mechanisms.
- They are both secondary transport mechanisms.
- They will often work in conjunction as a form of concentration regulation.
- They are substrate specific, meaning the protein will need to bond with a specific small molecule while the pump will need the presence of a specific ion.
- Since they work together, they will require that both parts have bonded with their substrate in order to activate.
Therefore, given that the statement in the question describes membrane-bound carrier proteins that work in conjunction with ionic pumps, we can confirm that this is done as a form of concentration regulation, to ensure that one does not activate without the other, therefore, they will need a specific ion and molecule to bond in order to activate.
