The correct option is:
The ions are moved using active transport.
Active transport requires energy to move ions against their concentration gradient, which is the case for sodium ions being moved from the inside of a cell to the outside.
Sodium ions are usually moved from the inside of a cell to the outside of a cell. This requires energy by the cell to move these ions.
Which of the following best describes how these ions are being moved?
Question 3 options:
The ions are moved using active transport.
The ions are moved using passive transport.
The ions are moved using osmosis.
The ions are moved using facilitated diffusion.
