Reabsorption of filtered glucose from the filtrate into the cells of the proximal tubule is by: Reabsorption of filtered glucose
marysya [2.9K]

Answer: A(secondary active transport)

Explanation:

Secondary active transport, is transport of molecules across the cell membrane which utilizes energy created by co-transporter pumping of ions across the membrane in an electrochemical gradient.

The reabsorption of glucose from the proximal tubule occurs via secondary active transport.

The reabsorbption of glucose does not depend the concentration gradient but on the reabsorption of sodium a co-transporter.

ATP is used in the movements of Na+/K+. Energy is also produced from sodium electrochemical gradient concentration and it is enough energy to transport glucose across the membrane into the epithelial cells.

Which of the following is NOT a symptom of ketoacidosis?
Tom [10]

Answer:

Decreased breathing (a) is not a symptom of ketoacidosis.

Explanation:

Ketoacidosis is a condition involving the levated production of ketones in the organism, usually as a consequence of type 1 diabetes.

The build up of ketones in the blood is mostly due to the breakdown of fatty acids by the body to acquire energy. Since ketone is an organic acid, its high levels decrease blood pH leading to several symptoms.

Frequent urination (polurya), fruity odor to breath, dehydratation and electrolyte imbalance are some of the symptoms. Decreased breathing rate is not a symptom, actually, ketoacidosis leads to rapid breathing.

Increasing the rate of breathing reduces the amount of CO₂ in the blood, which increases its pH making it less acidic.

Which of the following statements correctly describes some aspect of protein excretion in prokaryotic cells? a Prokaryotes are u
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c "Proteins that are excreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane".

Explanation:

Many prokaryotes secrete proteins, particularly, extracellular enzymes that have a function outside the cells and toxins that are not needed by the cell. As any other protein, proteins that are excreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes  that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. However, excreted proteins go to the general secretion (Sec) pathway, where they are tagged and further processed.
