Solution

Symport proteins bind to two different molecules and transport them across the membrane in the same direction along the concentration gradient. Antiport transport proteins facilitate the movement of two different solute molecules in the opposite direction. One solute is exchanged for the other. Uniport transport system allows the movement of molecules towards the concentration gradient, across a membrane independent of other molecules.
