Do all human cells obtain glucose in the same way 

Biology
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]11 months 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 .

Construct a concept map that shows how a population of bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics.
Vsevolod [243]

The attached picture shows how bacteria gain antibiotic resistance. Firstly, a few individuals attain a beneficial mutation in their genetic material that accords them the capability to survive in an antibiotic. The individuals are hence able to survive and reproduce more than those individuals without the mutation. There is, therefore, a genetic shift in the population in favor of the resistant genotype. After generations, the whole population becomes antibiotic resistant.

Identify and describe the various satellites the orbit in our solar system.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

The seven largest natural satellites in the solar system (over 2,500 km in diameter) are the four Jovian Galilean moons - Ganymede, Callisto, Io, and Europa - Saturn's moon Titan, Earth's own Moon, and the satellite captured natural of Neptune Triton.

They move around a larger body. They revolve around these bodies because of their gravitational pull. The orbits that they describe when turning on these bodies can be regular or irregular.

Natural satellites of planets in the Solar System

Mercury → 0.

Venus → 0.

Earth → 1.

Mars → 2.

Jupiter → 79.

Saturn → 82.

Uranus → 27.

Neptune → 14.
