When you eat a large meal and your body absorbs a lot of glucose and that makes its way to the interstitial fluid before going i

nto the cell. 100% of the glucose should be absorbed into the cell from the interstitial fluid. Why does nearly all of the glucose enter the cell, rather than only half of it?
A. It is moved by active transport.
B. It is modified by the cell, so there is still more glucose on the outside of the cell than inside it.
C. Insulin forces glucose into the cell against a concentration gradient.
D. The cells make ATP so fast, they use up all the glucose as soon as it enters the cell.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The glucose is the basic unit of energy. It is absorbed by the cells of the body. The glucose that is taken inside the body by the means of food is utilized to gain energy.

The glucose that is absorbed from the food moves to interstitial spaces before going inside the cell.

100% of the glucose is transferred from the interstitial spaces of the cell to the inside of the cell.

This is because more amount of the glucose is still outside the cell as it is absorbed completely.

The pubic symphysis connects the two hip bones anteriorly and provides a little movement during childbirth. Choose the most appr
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The most appropriate tissue to join the pubic symphysis -that provides resistance to pressure and stretch during childbirth- is fibrocartilage.

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

  • <em>A. Fibrocartilage.</em>
  • <em>B. Elastic cartlage.</em>
  • <em>C. Bone.</em>
  • <em>D. Hyaline cartilage.</em>

Fibrocartilage is made up of dense connective tissue rich in type I collagen fibers, hyaluronic acid and proteoglycans, which give it resistance to stretching and pressure.

Some ligaments are formed by fibrocartilage, in addition to the intervertebral discs and the junction of the pubic symphysis, allowing a certain degree of mobility to the associated structures due to their semi-elastic properties.

Hyaline cartilage, also made up of connective tissue, is less resistant than fibrocartilage.

Bone cannot form this junction, because it would not allow the relative mobility of the joint.

The elastic cartilage allows for stretching but not the strength needed to join the pubic symphysis.
