Generation

## The Sodium-Potassium Pump The sodium-potassium pump (Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase) actively transports 3 sodium ions out of the cell and 2 potassium ions into the cell per ATP molecule hydrolyzed, creating an electrochemical gradient across the plasma membrane. ## Why It Matters This pump is essential for maintaining cell volume, establishing the resting membrane potential (approximately -70mV) necessary for nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction, and providing the ion gradients that drive secondary active transport of nutrients like glucose and amino acids. Without it, cells would swell and burst, and electrical signaling in neurons and muscles would cease.
