3). Both glucose and amino acid are taken up by the cell through the facilitated diffusion, which needs a transport molecule. Facilitated diffusion involves the transport of transport of molecules using the membrane-bound proteins. For example, ion channels allow the transport of ions into and out of the cell, which are otherwise, cannot pass through cell membrane. Glucose binds to the carrier molecule present on the cell membrane, and enter into the cell; this process is facilitated by insulin. The binding of glucose to tits carrier molecule is specific similarly, the binding of amino acid to tits carrier molecule is also specific.
3. Both glucose and amino acid claim to have a special relationship with their respective transport...

During the course of 24 hours, kidney cells (using special
transport proteins) move 384 grams of glucose across their cell
membranes from the kidney filtrate to the blood. (In this way
valuable glucose is not lost in the urine.) What is the rate of
glucose movement across these cell membranes in molecules per
second?
Assume the molecular weight of glucose is 180. (One mole of
glucose weighs 180 grams.)
1 mole = 6.022 x 10 23 molecules
