Active Transport Membrane Potential
2,258 wordsEffects Of Solutions On Ion Transport Across Membranes Abstract Concentration gradients exist between two different salt molarity solutions on opposite sides of a membrane. Movement of ions across these sides can be achieved by either active or passive diffusion. In our first three experiments we used these concentration gradients to determine the characteristics of selective permeability of an artificial membrane to potassium chloride (KCl), the potential difference across the skin of a frog, R...
