The sodium and potassium ions crossed the cell membrance by utilising the metabolic energy.
Explanation:
- The sodium and potassium ions crossed the cell membrance by utilising the metabolic energy.
- It is an active transport process because ATPs are hydrolysed to ADP. It provides the necessary energy to transport of these ions.
- It utilises the enzyme Na+/K+-ATPase.
- The sodium-potassium ions pump is an important action, potential produced by the nerve cells. Thank
