Biology

There is no need for chloroplasts in plant roots because their function is to use energy from the sun to convert into starches to be used by the plant. Since the suns light does not reach the roots, they would not be able to use chloroplasts anyways.

Glucose provides energy for cells. Different cells have different mechanisms for glucose intake. Intestinal cells contain protei
Softa [21]

The answer is; active transport in small intestines and passive transport in blood cells

In passive transport, no energy is required to transport the glucose molecules because they spon6tanosuely move down their concenntrati0n gradient. The transport protein in the blood cell membrane only enables the molecule to pass across the hydrophobic layer of lipid in the membrane and into the cell.

In active transport, energy is required in the transportation of glucose against their concentration gradient (glucose is highly concentrated in the lumen of the intestines than in the bloodstream). Sodium/Potassium (Na+/K+) pumps play a significant role in the transport of glucose. When sodium diffuses back into the cells, they drag along glucose molecules  with them across the sodium-glucose transporter protein.
