Suppose a membrane contains a single passive transporter
with a Km of 0.1 mM for its
solute.
A. How effective would the transporter be at equalizing
the concentrations of solute across the membrane if the starting
concentrations were 0.01 mM inside and 0.05 mM
outside?
B. What if the concentrations were 100 mM inside and 500
mM outside?
Can you please show calculations with an explanation of how
effective?
