Answer:

The answer that fits the blank space is hydrophilic.

Explanation:

A hydrophilic substance is basically a substance with a very high polarity. If something has a high polarity, it's needed to know where is this polarity, because remember, a polar substance can have non polar and polar bonds, it depends on lots of factors. After stablishing that, we can check the hydrogen bonds, with that, we can confirm that this substance (sugar) will easily dissolve in water.

explain how a carrier protein can facilitate the diffusion of glucose or other substances into the cell.

Sveta_85 [38]

Specific chemicals are bound by carrier proteins and transferred on one side of the membrane. The conformational changes they go through next enable the molecule to cross the membrane and exit on the other side.

How carrier protein facilitate the diffusion?

When a molecule diffuses, it usually moves from a high concentration location to a low concentration area until the concentration is the same everywhere in the space.

Contrary to channel proteins, another form of membrane transport protein that is less selective in the molecules it transports, carriers are proteins that move a particular material through intracellular compartments, into the extracellular fluid, or across cells. Carrier proteins are found in lipid bilayer cell structures such cell membranes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, just like other membrane transport proteins.
