Answer Key / Explanation : (d) -

(d)

Transporter proteins are integral part of both facilitated and active type of transport method. Carrier proteins found in facilitated diffusion and active transport are different and specific. Generally, facilitated diffusion is not an energy involvement process.

While active transport needs energy. Transporate of substances in active process reaches to maximum level (saturation point) when all the proteins are being used completely
