Ligand gated ion channels structure and function

[mikkikun91]

Thanks for this visual presentation :) Makes it much easier to understand what my book is trying to imply when seeing it once in action. Now all the words make a lot more sense :)

One thing I would have changed a little is the color of the ions. They are not that easy to spot ;)

Ohh and yeah, this is from my understanding passive transport (in case one person isn't sufficent enough as an answer).

@mikkikun91: I agree—thank you! I won't forget the giant green bell pepper (or cell pepper)!

@toxicrage3 coming from a gamer, yeah no doubt you wouldn't understand

isn't it passive transport? because the ions pass through their respective channels by diffusion, which requires no energy other than the concentration gradient itself (passive transport).

@xfactorAD28 you are right!

This was very helpful to me. Thanks for sharing. :)

[brcldn08]

what kind of transport is this active or passive?
