Do all human cells obtain glucose in the same way 

Biology
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

Animal cells (including humans ofcourse), heterotrophs, derive their energy from coupled oxidation-reduction reactions. Glucose is a primary fuel for heterotrophs. Energy derived from glucose is stored in the form of high-energy phosphate bonds in ATP, or other nucleotide triphosphates, and as energy-rich hydrogen atoms associated with the co-enzymes NADP and NAD .

Glucose is unable to diffuse across the cell membrane without the assistance of transporter proteins. At least 13 hexose transporter proteins with different functions have been identified. Some hexose transporters allow glucose to flow passively from high to low concentration without requiring the expenditure of cell energy. Those that move glucose against its concentration gradient consume energy, generally in the form of ATP.

D-Glucose is the natural form used by animal cells.

So yes it is present inside human cells .

Darya [45]

Whales use their lower jawbone to the middle ear. whereby they can ear clearly while they are in the water. Human ears and dolphins ears they work the same . They receive sound directly from the air.

In similar way dolphins and human ears are placed in basic anatomical location which is same as on the head. Without a medium hearing is not possible.

The medium sound for human is air. Sound travels 343 meters per second in air and 147 meters per second in water. The most effective way of transmitting sound waves is through water.

We can say that the sound will be fast to travel in medium if the molecules are closer.

DanielleElmas [232]

B. Being new to the country, it is safer for Sarah to take precautions until she gets acclimated

I believe this is the answer as the other answers take too many assumptions as the question doesn't explicitely state that Sarah has skin problems.
