Sodium-potassium pumps, gated sodium channels, and gated potassium channels are all important in the functioning of nerve cells in your body. When the nerve cell is not sending a signal the gated channels are closed the sodium-potassium pump moves sodium ions out of the cell and potassium into the cell the pump therefore creates a high concentration of sodium ions outside the cell and a high concentration of potassium ions inside When the nerve sends a signal, there is a point where gated sodium channels open, followed by their closure and opening of the gated potassium channels. Based on this information and what you know about transport across membranes, which protein is involved in active transport? [a] When the gated channels open, [b].
