Describe how NO3-is transported into a plant cell

What will be an ideal response?


ANSWER: Both of these ions are transferred by secondary active transport powered by a H+ gradient.
NO3- moves into plant cells by a process called symport. Here, the potential energy
released as H+ follows its gradient is coupled to the uptake of ions such a NO3–.
