Which of the following is the best description of active transport? - A protein pump in the cytosol pumps a molecule up it's concentration gradient by binding to it and changing shape.

- A protein pump embedded in the cell membrane pumps a molecule up it's concentration gradient by binding to it and changing shape. Active transport requires energy (ATP).

- A protein channel embedded in the cell membrane allows molecules to diffuse through it, down it's concentration gradient. No energy (ATP) is required.

- A protein pump embedded in the cell membrane pumps a molecule up it's concentration gradient. The protein pump does not bind to the molecule being transported and does not require energy.

Lactase is essential for digesting lactose in milk. this enzyme is specific for this sugar. why? molecules and active sites vary in size; only properly sized molecules can fit. there is a precise compatibility between the active site and the lactose molecule. specificity refers to the action of the enzyme, such as hydrolysis, and relatively few molecules can be hydrolyzed. reaction-specific enzymes assume a fit by folding around the most numerous substrate molecules.
