What are pumps in active transport?

‘Pump’ proteins in active transport:

‘Pump’ proteins in active transport:

Cite an example to show that enzymes are highly specific.

Assertion : proteins are called as pumps in active transport. Reason : they use energy to carry substances across cell membrane .

Assertion : Enzymes lower the activation energy of the reactant molecule to make its transition into product easier. Reason : Enzymes are highly substrate specific

Assertion : Enzymes lower the activation energy of the reactant molecule to make its transition into product easier. Reason : Enzymes are highly substrate specific
