**Aquaporins** are:

  1. Water-tight membrane proteins
  2. Membrane channel proteins that facilitate rapid passive water transport across cell membranes
  3. Water-storing tissues in succulents
  4. Active ATP-driven water pumps
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Membrane channel proteins that facilitate rapid passive water transport across cell membranes

Aquaporins (AQPs) are integral membrane channels that allow facilitated diffusion of water (and sometimes small solutes) through bilayers ~10×–100× faster than simple diffusion. Important in roots (water uptake) and guard cells (stomatal movement).
