What is Membrane Permeability: Transport Mechanisms about?
Biological membranes serve as barriers that define cell boundaries and facilitate biochemical functions, transport, and communication. They are primarily composed of a lipid bilayer, proteins, and carbohydrates, which contribute to their permeability. Transport across membranes can occur via simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion with specific proteins, or active transport driven by ATP hydrolysis.
