The endoplasmic reticulum bound enzyme that hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in liver is: glucose-6-phosphatase.

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), an enzyme found mainly in the liver and the kidneys, plays the important role of providing glucose during starvation. Unlike most phosphatases acting on water-soluble compounds, it is a membrane-bound enzyme, being associated with the endoplasmic reticulum.

Liver cells contain a membrane bound enzyme called glucose-6-phosphatase for glycogenolysis by glucagon especially during starvation when free glucose is required. As glucagon enters the liver cells it activates the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase which then acts on glucose-6-phosphate and hydrolyzes it. As glucose-6-phosphate is hydrolyzed, it results in the formation of a phosphate group and a free glucose. The free glucose thus formed is transported from the liver cell to other tissues by specific glucose transport membrane protiens.

What is the potential disadvantage of external digestion ​
harina [27]
This dispersal reduces the likelihood that a sperm will find an egg. Many sperm and eggs die before achieving fertilization. The low success rate of external fertilization puts animals at a reproductive disadvantage compared to internal fertilization.
