Glucose provides energy for cells. Different cells have different mechanisms for glucose intake. Intestinal cells contain protei

ns that transport glucose against its concentration gradient. These proteins couple the movement of glucose to the movement of sodium down its concentration gradient. Red blood cells have transporter proteins embedded in their membranes. When bound by a glucose molecule, these proteins change shape and allow glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell.
Based on this information, what type of transport is used for glucose in blood and intestinal cells?

A.
Both blood and intestinal cells take in glucose by active transport.
B.
Blood cells take in glucose by passive transport and intestinal cells take in glucose by active transport.
C.
Both blood and intestinal cells take in glucose by passive transport.
D.
Blood cells take in glucose by active transport and intestinal cells take in glucose by passive transport.

Wag is looking for the best of the best to join the pack! tell us about yourself and why you'd like to be a dog walker.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Honestly, dog-walking and dog-sitting is a really great job and <span>it is also really fun and rewarding</span>. The average wage for a Dog Walker is $13.27 per hour. Therefore, being a freelancer, I would love to spend my spare time on the dog walk.
Usually, I spend an hour, every morning, jogging. This suits me and I can earn some extra cash too, besides my fitness.

The Lotka-Volterra model produces consistently identical cycles because it is deterministic. The lynx and hare simulation on the
Setler [38]

Answer:

B. In the real world, random and unpredictable events occur, so the Lotka-Volterra parameters vary over time

Explanation:

Lotka-Volterra equations are mathematical models that explain biological prey-predator interactions among two species, considering the following assumptions,      

  • The ecosystem is isolated and closed. There is no migration.
  • The whole individuals are reproductively equivalent.
  • In the absence of the predator, prey shows an exponential growth rate. The prey is in the ideal environment.
  • In the absence of the prey, the predator population decreases exponentially.  The predator environment is also ideal, but it is limited by the prey density.  
  • The predation rate is proportional to the encounters rate, which also depends on density.
  • The predators affect the prey populations, making it decrease proportionally to the number of prey and predators present.
  • The prey population also influence the predator population, proportionally to the number of encounters between the two species.

In these equations, the variable D is the number of predators, and P the number of preys.

The parameters are always constant:  

  • r1: prey growth rate.
  • a1: predator hunting success.
  • r2: predator growth rate.
  • a2: the success of the predator in hunting and feeding.

In nature, there are many factors affecting interactions. Dense-dependent factors and dense-independent factors. Also in reality there are stochastic factors. <em>Stochasticity refers to the variability in the system involving those factors that are affecting or influencing the population growth. Stochasticity might be related to good years and bad years for population growth.</em>

In a real situation, the compliance of the whole assumptions does not occur. The previously mentioned constants might vary, changing continuously the interaction among the predator and the prey. These parameters change in different degrees, resulting in different circumstances for both species.
