The sodium-potassium ion pump simultaneously transports two different solutes. Is the sodium-potassium ion pump an example of a cotransporter? Justify your answer by explaining the mechanism of the pump.

the sodium-potassium (Na+/K+) pump transports both sodium and potassium their concentration gradients in a process called
Select all that apply for the sodium/potassium pump: The pump is an ABC transporter that uses energy from ATP (one molecule) to pump potassium ions out of the cell and sodium ions into the cell. The ions create an electric potential that causes the membrane to become polarized. The pump is an ABC transporter that uses energy from ATP (one molecule) to pump sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. Two potassium ions are pumped into the cell for every three sodium ions exported. Two potassium ions are pumped out of the cell for every three sodium ions imported. Two sodium ions are pumped into the cell for every three potassium ions exported.
