The process of the plasma membrane pumping excess sodium out of a cell into an environment where there is a lower concentration of sodium is called _________.

Respuesta :

Active transport

Explanation:

The process of the plasma membrane pumping excess sodium out of a cell into an environment where there is a lower concentration of sodium is called active transport

  • Active transport drives the transportation of solute against the concentration gradient across the membrane
  • It includes two types of transport: primary active transport and secondary active transport
  • Transport of sodium occurs through primary active transport
  • Primary active transport catalyzes direct hydrolysis of ATP during solute transportation called ATPase
