In the light of carrier concept, the transport of ion across the membrane is

A

Passive process

B

Non-osmotic process

C

Osmotic process

D

Active process

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In active ion absorption through carrier protein, some specific carrier molecules made up of proteins are present in the cell membrane of the root cell which absorbs both the ions and forms ion carrier complex. This complex is break inside the cell membrane with the expenditure of energy.
