What is the primary driving force for glucose transport into proximal tubule cells?

Biology

erma4kov [3.2K]3 years ago

The correct answer is: sodium gradient

It is very important for glucose to be transported into proximal tubule cells (reabsorbed) because that is the way to prevent it from disappearing from the body through the urine.

Glucose is co-transported with sodium ions into the proximal tubule via the SGLT2 cotransporter. This cotransporter is an example of secondary transport because it uses the energy from downhill sodium ion gradient created by the ATPase pump to transport glucose.

With the passage of time, the rock wall would be weathered under the impact of flowing water and would receede backwards.
Explanation:
Given details=
Water flowing at the pace of 2 to 3 feet per sec
It must be understood that flowing water act as an erosive agent here.
As the water flows, it carries with itself erosive tools which erode the rock surface. Since the speed of water is considerable, the erosion is quite significant. Due to the erosive action of the river, the rock wall would be continuously eroded starting from the tip and in turn, would recede backwards (in the upstream direction).
