Glucose is absorbed by Na+/glucose symporter into the intestinal epithelial cells.  
<span>
Symporter is located on the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelial cell and it <span>is used for uptake of glucose from the intestinal lumen into the cell (against the concentration gradient). One glucose molecule and two Na+ enter the cell via symporter. Na+ concentration gradient and the membrane potential (generated from the Na+/K+ ATPase in the basolateral membrane) enable the function of the symporter. Glucose leaves the cell via facilitated diffusion on the basolateral membrane of the intestinal epithelial cell and goes into the blood.</span></span>

Answer:

Chitin

Explanation:

Chitin is the polysaccharide that makes up the outer exoskeleton of many insects. It is a fibrous polymer, that is made up of chains of modified glucose molecules. It  is comparable in structure to cellulose, which makes up the plant cell wall. In function, it is more similar to keratin or collagen, although these are proteins.

Chitin is exclusively found in the arthropods, mollusks and fungi. It plays an important protective and structural role, giving organisms their tough outer exoskeleton or strong cell wall in the case of fungi.

What process has led to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria? a. budding c. natural selection b. selective breeding
Serggg [28]
The correct answer is natural selection. C is the answer!

Bacteria has a stronger resistance that usually produces even more resistant bacteria, and the cycle just repeats itself, making more and more resistant bacteria. This process is called Natural Selection. 
 
Hope that helped!

Give two reasons why dna evidence analysis is an imperfect science
Virty [35]

Answer:

DNA samples might be planted and it is possible to synthesize a nucleotide sequence to incriminate a person

Explanation:

In a criminal case, DNA evidence may be considered to be fraudulent because DNA samples might be planted around the crime scene. Moreover, specific genomic profiles of an individual stored in the database can be used to manufacture a DNA sample matching this profile without the necessity to obtain tissues of the person. In consequence, DNA evidence may be considered to be imperfect. Nonetheless, it is important to highlight that DNA evidence is one of the most important modern advances used during criminal trials, and it has proven to be a very useful (and effective) tool available in law enforcement.
