Correct Answer: D. The concentration of glucose on either side of the membrane.
Explanation:
In passive transport, substance move from its region of higher concentration to its lower concentration. Hence option D is correct.
When glucose moves across a phospholipid bilayer by passive transport, which factor determines the direction of...
26- Explain why it is right to argue that the transport of glucose across the apical membrane of 27- Base on the role of the liver as a regulator of blood glucose, explain the physiological importance 28-Some cells have aquaporins (channels that facilitate the flow of water molecules through the intestinal epithelial cells is ultimately powered by ATP hydrolysis. of its glucose transporter being a passive transporter. plasma membrane). For these cells, what regulates the rate and direction of water...
Please summarize this chapter typed clearly. Diffusion Is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across a space. Facilitated transport Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. Channels The integral proteins involved in facilitated transport are collectively referred to as transport proteins, and they...

33) Which of the following is most likely true of a protein that cotransports glucose and sodium ions into the intestinal cells of an animal? A) Sodium and glucose bind to the same site on the cotransporter. B) Transport of glucose against its concentration gradient provides energy for uptake of sodium ions against the electrochemical gradient. C) Sodium ions can be transported whether or not glucose is present outside the cell, but glucose transport requires cotransport of sodium ions. D)...
Lo 10: Electrochemical Gradient The difference in voltage across the membrane is called the __________________________________. The inside of a normal cell is ___________________ (+/-); while the outside is ___________(+/-). The resting membrane potential of a neuron is ___________mV. Diagram the relative ratios of Ca++, Na+ and K+ in a cell under resting conditions. Draw an arrow for each of the molecules indicating which direction would be passive transport (into or out of the cell). For each of the following sentences, fill in...
During the aerobic metabolism of glucose, glucose is ____________. Reduced to form water Oxidized to form water Reduced to form CO2 Oxidized to form CO2 Which of the following describes the equation: FAD + XH2 à FADH2 + X. FAD is reduced to FADH2 It is a coupled reduction – oxidation reaction XH2 is oxidized to X All of the above Which of the following is FALSE about glycolysis? The initial steps of glycolysis requires energy derived from the splitting...
9. Some diseases result from defective transport across the membrane. For example, cystic fibrosis results when a chloride ion transporter does not function. Which of the following is affected when this transporter does NOT function? the electrical gradient of the cell neither the chloride gradient nor the electrical gradient of the cell the chloride concentration gradient both the chloride concentration gradient and the electrical gradient of the cell 10. Which way does the water move if the cell is in...
