What is the role of an Antiporter in secondary active transport?

  1. Changes shape to push Sodium out and pull Potassium in

  2. Indirectly uses energy from ATP release to pull Sodium ions into and push another molecule out of the cell at the same time (swaps substances)

  3. Indirectly uses energy from ATP release to pull Sodium ions and another molecule into the cell at the same time (moves substances into the cell together)
