Question

The function of sodium pump is a biological process operating each and every cell of all animal

Answer 1

Answer:-

The Na-K pump is a specialised transport protein found in the cell membrane. It is responsible for movement of potassium ions into the cells while simultaneously moving the sodium ions outside the cell. This is important for cell physiology. The sodium and potassium ions are pumped in opposite directions across the membrane, building up a chemical and electrical gradient for each. These gradients are used to drive other transport processes.

It has a particular significance for excitable cells such as nervous cells, which depend on this pump for responding to stimuli and transmitting impulses. Nerve impulses would be impossible without the aid of the Na-K pump.
