Cytoplasmic Na + bonds to the sodium-potassium pump Na + binding stimulates phosphorylation by ATP. Phosphorylation causes the protein to change its conformation, expelling Na + to the outside. Extracellular K + binds to the protein, triggering release of the phosphate group. Loss of the phosphate restores the protein’s original conformation. K + is released and Na + sites are receptive again; the cycle repeats.

Study Questions: 1. List three differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. 2. What is a biofilm? 3. Describe the function of mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and liposomes. 4. Why is the lipid bilayer a barrier to water soluble molecules? 5. Describe diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. 6. How does solute concentration and pressure affect water potential and osmosis.
