I can't see images, but I can help you identify different types of transport proteins based on their characteristics:
1. **Carrier Protein**: These proteins bind to specific substances and change shape to shuttle them across the membrane. They can be passive (facilitating diffusion) or active (requiring energy).
2. **Channel Protein**: These form open passages for specific molecules to cross the membrane, typically allowing ions or small molecules to pass through without the need for energy.
3. **Gated Channel Protein**: A type of channel protein that opens or closes in response to specific stimuli (such as a voltage change or the binding of a ligand), regulating the flow of substances.
If you describe the image or provide details about the characteristics of the transport protein shown, I could help you better determine which type it is.
