Question

Cells lining the small intestine absorb glucose which of the following is required to transport glucose molecules across the cell membranes of the imtestine
A) ATP to bind the glucose molecules
B) ATP to start the process
C) ADP to break down The glusie molecules

Answer 1

Transporting molecules through a membrane against their concentration gradient is called active transport. It needs a transporter protein and energy ATP. ATP doesn't bind to the glucose molecules, the transporter does. Also, the glucose isn't broken down So the only correct answer is B... Hope this helps

Answer 2

The correct answer is B.) ATP to start the process.
